Safety Officer

Research shows that companies who monitor workplace and job site conditions through a formal inspection or audit program and implement a relevant occupational health and safety action plan have fewer injuries, fines from regulators, and, in many cases, better communication between workers and management personnel.

The role of the Safety Officer in this process is critical. As also required by the Greek legislation, his duties include:

• Development of the Occupational Health & Safety Risk Assessment.
• Guidance on Occupational Health & Safety action plans.
• Consultation to the employer concerning the introduction of new production processes, means and equipment.
• Consultation to the employer concerning the arrangement of the working environment and organization of the production process.
• Conduct of Safety Training.
• Investigation of occupational accidents and near misses.
• Provision of guidance concerning the use of Personal Protective Equipment.
• Collaboration with the Occupational Physician and the employee's representative.
