Occupational Safety
This domain tests the first head's personal duties in occupational safety and health and the sequence of actions after an accident - the area where inaction is punished most visibly.
The employer's duties
The Labour Code and the Law on Civil Protection (No. 188-V of 11 April 2014) require an OSH management system: hazard identification and risk assessment, instructions and training, personal protective equipment, periodic certification of workplaces for working conditions, mandatory medical examinations and safe operation of equipment. The first head approves the OSH policy, appoints responsible persons and funds the measures.
Accidents
An accident at work must be reported, and the employer must notify the state labour inspector and other bodies within the statutory period; the employer forms a commission, investigates and draws up an act in the established form. Facts may not be concealed or rewritten.
Insurance and control
Employer's civil liability for damage to health is insured compulsorily, with the premium depending on the occupational risk class. The state labour inspector may suspend work that threatens life or health.
Worked example
An employee injures a hand and keeps working; nobody is notified. Three weeks later the injury is registered as an industrial accident. The company has breached the reporting and investigation rules, and the late act will be disputed - with a real risk that insurance indemnity and social benefit are delayed and the inspector issues a fine.
Traps
Treating OSH as paperwork owned by an engineer; failing to investigate micro-accidents; assuming contractors on site are outside the employer's control zone; forgetting the compulsory liability insurance.
