Office risks
Entrepreneur Bob Veldhuizen explains how personal injury can run into hundreds of euros if you don't have an RI&E. In his workplace, stress and sedentary work are the biggest occupational risks. Veldhuizen gives tips on how to reduce risks and how to get started yourself for a safe workplace.
Mandatory from one employee upwards
The RI&E is compulsory if you employ at least one employee. This also includes trainees, volunteers, hired workers and temporary workers. Involve your employees in the risk inventory. They deal with many of the measures and see risks you might overlook. Do all your employees' duties add up to a maximum of 40 hours of work per week? Then you can use the Health Risks Checklist (in Dutch) and do not need an RI&E.
Update RI&E
As soon as something changes in your organisation, the risks may also change. Check your RI&E every year and update it. Or update it immediately when something changes that affects occupational risks.
