FAQ
Does every company need OHS?
Yes. Every employer who employs at least one employee has occupational health and safety obligations. Even a sole proprietorship may have obligations if it employs people under an employment contract.
What are the consequences of not providing OHS training?
During an inspection, a fine or financial penalty may be imposed. In the event of an accident, the lack of training becomes a serious legal problem for the business owner.
How often should periodic OHS training be carried out?
It depends on the job position. Different deadlines apply to office employees, and different ones apply to manual workers or people managing a team.
Can OHS training be completed entirely online?
In many cases, yes, especially for administrative and office employees. In some industries, in-person training or on-the-job instruction is required.
What is an occupational risk assessment?
It is a document that describes the hazards at a given workstation and how to reduce them. It is mandatory in every company that employs workers.
Do I need OHS documentation if I run a small company?
Yes. The size of the company does not exempt it from the obligation to keep documentation. The scope of documents depends on the type of activity and the number of employees.
What does an inspection by the National Labour Inspectorate or Sanitary Inspectorate look like?
The inspector checks the documents and working conditions in the company. If the documentation is complete and the workstations are safe, the inspection proceeds smoothly.
Can you represent the company during an inspection?
Yes. We can prepare documents before the inspection and support the entrepreneur during the inspector’s visit.
What should be done if an accident at work occurs?
The accident site should be secured, first aid should be provided and the accident should be reported in accordance with regulations. We help prepare complete post-accident documentation.
How much does OHS service cost?
The price depends on the number of employees, the type of activity and the scope of services. After a short conversation, we can prepare an individual quote tailored to your company.
