Pursuant to Act XCIII of 1993 on occupational safety, all companies (excluding single-member companies) shall adopt a risk assessment, which shall primarily assess the risks associated with buildings, activities and machinery, and provide a concise and effective action plan aimed at the reduction of risks.

In order for objectives to be really fulfilled, it is important that all tasks shall be assigned to responsible officers and limited with deadlines!

Risk assessment shall be reviewed on an annual basis, evaluating objectives fulfilled and adopting new objectives.

There are no effective laws stipulating that business entities or official authorities shall adopt an occupational safety plan.

However, it is important to stress that the provision of personal protective equipment, cleaning and hygiene supplies, mandatory medical examinations, designation of smoking and first aid locations shall be regulated under an internal plan. During training, employees shall learn about regulations on the proper use of personal protective equipment, and confirm such knowledge under a written declaration. Therefore, we believe that regulating the above obligations under a consolidated occupational safety plan is a practical solution.

Regardless of the scope of activities or duties, all employees shall attend an occupational safety training prior to the start of employment. The main objective is to educate employees on the most important relevant regulations, obligations and rights. Moreover, our trainings are designed to promote a proactive attitude which is necessary to avoid accidents, as well as proper management of unforeseen events.

Apart from traditional presence education, we also offer e-learning courses to meet individual requests.

Pursuant to applicable laws, high-risk machinery shall only be entered into service following a prior occupational and electric safety inspection, thus guaranteeing compliance of the machine with technical safety requirements; such compliance shall be maintained through periodical inspections every five years.

Even though we try our hardest to avoid and eliminate the possibility of accidents, unfortunately, they may occur at any time. In case of such unfortunate events, the primary task is to provide immediate and proper medical care to the injured. In cases like that, adequate and prompt reaction of colleagues may be crucial.

Following the elimination of immediate danger (providing first aid, calling an ambulance etc.), accidents shall be investigated for purposes of occupational safety.

Protocols on occupational or workplace safety incidents shall be adopted in five copies, using the form stipulated by the Act on Occupational Safety, of which the injured party, the employer and the social security insurance fund (in lieu thereof, the competent medical insurance fund and the competent authority at the Hungarian Labour Inspectorate) shall each receive a copy.

Warning: Documents shall be submitted by the 8th day of the month following the month in which the accident has occurred!

The National Health Insurance Fund shall investigate all accidents, and in case of a breach, it may order the company to cover potential expenses of surgery and rehabilitation; therefore, keeping all mandatory documentation up-to-date is advised.
