In today’s business environment, compliance with regulations is essential to operate in accordance with the law. Among the various provisions, Legislative Decree 81/08 plays a crucial role, outlining obligations in the field of occupational safety. To ensure documented compliance and protect the health of workers, companies need effective tools and competent professionals.
D.Lgs 81/08: pillar of safety at work
Legislative Decree 81/08, also known as the Consolidated Law on Safety at Work, sets out the preventive and protective measures that companies must take to protect the health and safety of workers. Together with Legislative Decree 231/01 (administrative liability of legal persons) and Legislative Decree 196/03 (protection of personal data), it is one of the pillars of document compliance.
Documentary Compliance: a business obligation
Corporate compliance, i.e. compliance with applicable regulations, is a mandatory obligation for companies. Legislative Decree 81/08, in particular, requires companies to take preventive and protective measures to ensure safety at work, preventing risks and protecting workers’ health.
