gutwin Hazardous Materials Management Module

The Requirements

The employer is legally obliged to perform workplace assessments for all chemical and biological hazardous materials and to maintain an index of hazardous materials.

In the event of an accident in the workplace, e.g. with serious physical injury, the public prosecutor first checks whether a current risk assessment and a current index of hazardous materials exist. A current workplace assessment and a current index of hazardous materials are essential requirements in order to reduce the personal liability of the managing director and other management staff.
