Occupational health services (OHS) are a legal obligation for employers under Act No. 355/2007 355/2007 Z. z. and at the same time an important tool for protecting health at work. Its purpose is to ensure professional oversight of working conditions, identify health risks, assess workplace factors, and minimize their impact on employees’ health. We provide comprehensive occupational health services (OHS), starting with a workplace audit (PZS audit), during which we prepare job classification and a written risk assessment record. Our work also includes preparing risk assessments, proposing measures to improve the working environment, and drafting operating procedures—particularly required when commissioning premises.
Our occupational health services assess the presence of workplace risk factors such as noise, dust, vibrations, physical and mental strain, chemical substances, and other influences that may affect employees’ health. Based on the results, we assign employees to the appropriate job category and arrange one-off or periodic assessments of working conditions. We also arrange medical examinations related to work in the scope and frequency required by current legislation, including communication with the occupational health physician.
We provide clients with comprehensive documentation processing, including records, proposals, certificates, and support during inspections by public health authorities. We work professionally, reliably, and flexibly, tailored to the specific conditions of your operations—whether administrative offices, services, retail, or manufacturing. Entrust professional supervision of your workplace environment to experts and contact us for a tailored offer.
