Health & Safety Management System
Our integrated H&S-Management system, which has been introduced at all sites, aims to prevent disruptions in operational procedures in the areas of health and safety at work, minimises them and makes an important contribution to the company’s success. The H&S management system also improves legal security vis-à-vis employees, customers and the authorities.

 
Focal points:

Safe work place and minimisation of psychological stress
The wide variety of measures taken in the area of health and safety at work attach special attention to both ergonomic and safe design of the workplace and to the prevention and minimisation of psychological stress.

Strengthening personal health competence and work-life balance
In the Health & Safety sector RHI has carried out extensive work-life balance activities for several years and gives its employees the opportunity to have a health profile created regularly by occupational medicine as part of the health screenings on offer. Strengthening personal health competence is the best prevention.
