    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY SPECIALIST

    WHY MUST AN OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY SPECIALIST BE APPOINTED?

    The Occupational Safety Act stipulates that every employer with more than 50 employees must appoint an occupational safety specialist in writing. The occupational safety specialist supports the employer in implementing the statutory occupational safety regulations in the company.

    HOW CAN AN OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY SPECIALIST BE APPOINTED?

    An occupational safety specialist can be appointed either internally or externally. In the case of internal appointment, a separate employee is trained or hired who is responsible for implementing the occupational safety measures. This person is appointed personally as an occupational safety specialist.
    In the case of external assignment, an intercompany HSE service provider is engaged. In this case, it is not necessary to appoint a person by name. The registration of the subcontracted company as the responsible body is sufficient.
