Risk assessment is the centrepiece of an effective occupational safety system. It is legally required but in many businesses is still implemented in a fragmented way or limited to individual areas. FUTUROSALUD supports companies in making risk assessment a common thread that structures and makes traceable all further measures in occupational safety.
The starting point is a systematic survey: What activities are performed, what workplaces exist, what hazardous substances or biological agents are used and what organisational particularities need to be considered? On this basis, a practicable scope is defined together with management – for example by area, activity or project. It is important that risk assessment is not understood as a static document but as a living process.
FUTUROSALUD uses clearly structured templates suitable for different sectors and company sizes. In medical practices the focus is for example on infection risks, ergonomic loads and psychological factors; in research institutions more on laboratory risks and complex process chains. Startups often need flexible formats to respond quickly to new activities and organisational changes. Experience from many projects is incorporated into these templates and saves companies laborious in-house development.
The FUTUROSALUD ASI Manager supports the entire lifecycle of risk assessment digitally. Hazards, measures, responsibilities and deadlines are mapped centrally; follow-ups remind of reviews and updates. Progress can be documented and, if needed, prepared in reports for management, authorities or works and staff councils. This increases transparency and facilitates the involvement of all parties.
A well-structured risk assessment creates clarity about where the greatest risks lie in the company and which measures actually have an effect. FUTUROSALUD helps to turn the legal requirement into a meaningful management tool that keeps safety, health and efficiency in view.
