For every employer, it is essential to have clearly defined and implemented OHS processes to protect employees from potential workplace injuries and illnesses. In this blog, we look at why companies should ensure OHS and how SLOVCLEAN a.s. can help you do it.\r\n\r\n
\r\nEmployer\u2019s statutory obligations<\/strong>\r\nUnder Act No. 124\/2006 Coll., the employer is obliged to ensure a professional Safety-Technical Service (BTS). This obligation includes preparing professional OHS documentation, employee training, risk identification and assessment, and other activities necessary to protect employees. Failure to meet these obligations can lead to serious legal sanctions and damage to the company\u2019s reputation.<\/b>\r\n\r\n
\r\nWhat does our company offer in this area?<\/strong>
\r\n\r\nPreparation of OHS documentation<\/strong>
\r\nWe prepare complete professional OHS documentation in accordance with applicable legislation and customer requirements. Our expert preparation takes into account the specifics of each company and is tailored to the needs of employees.\r\n\r\n
\r\nEmployee training<\/strong>
\r\nWe conduct employee training at prescribed intervals, either in person or via e-learning. These trainings are crucial for raising OHS awareness and ensure employees are informed about safety practices and protocols.\r\n\r\n
\r\nRisk identification and assessment<\/strong>
\r\nOur service also includes risk identification and assessment in accordance with \u00a7 6 (1)(c) of Act No. 124\/2006 Coll. Based on this analysis, we also propose Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for employees.\r\n\r\n
\r\nAssistance with workplace accidents<\/strong>
\r\nIf a workplace accident occurs, we are here for you. We provide professional assistance with accident investigations, record processing, and communication with the competent authorities.\r\n\r\n
\r\nSupervision and inspections<\/strong>
\r\nWe keep prevention in mind as well. Our company oversees the fulfilment of obligations arising from OHS regulations, including inspections of the employer\u2019s workplaces. We identify shortcomings and propose improvements, thereby ensuring compliance with regulations.\r\n\r\n
\r\nOHS \u2014 a legal and moral duty<\/strong>
\r\nEnsuring OHS is not only a legal duty but also a moral responsibility towards your employees. By maintaining a safe working environment, you not only protect employees\u2019 health, but also increase productivity and motivation in the workplace.\r\n\r\n
\r\nFire protection<\/strong>
\r\nHand in hand with OHS, we also provide Fire Protection (FP) services. Under Act No. 314\/2001 Coll., an employer is obliged to fulfil tasks in this area if they employ more than 3 employees and\/or have a site\/premises larger than 100 m2<\/sup>.\r\n\r\n
\r\nSLOVCLEAN a.s. offers comprehensive services in this area, including the preparation and maintenance of fire protection documentation, employee training, preventive fire inspections, and checks of fire-safety equipment.\r\n\r\n
