It is a legal obligation for employers to comply with safety regulations and provide adequate and certified PPE to their employees and contractors.
The standard regulating in the field of work safety on construction sites is Legislative Decree No. 81 of April 9, 2008, which regulates safety on construction sites and other workplaces. In this Decree, the Employer, with the due support of the RSPP, the Medical Officer and the Workers’ Representative can find the necessary indications for the identification and analysis of company risks and draw up an appropriate list of prevention and protection measures for the protection of the safety and well-being of its employees and collaborators.
During the tasks and operations performed on a construction site, workers come into contact with numerous types of hazards on a daily basis, and these include:
An adequate Operating Safety Plan not only provides for these risks, but also outlines the operations to manage them should the need arise. This, combined with worker training, increases awareness of risky actions and appropriate prevention aimed at ensuring the well-being of all involved.
The effective management and prevention of risks at the construction site goes through tools and documents prepared by the employer, such as the Risk Assessment Document (DVR) which makes it possible to highlight and predict any hazards present in the workplace and the drafting of the Operating Safety Plan (POV), which allows a thorough and specific assessment of each worksite and includes operating instructions for workers.
Adequate forecasting and assessment of risks at the worksite therefore is essential to ensure the welfare and safety of workers and contractors.
