Submit a specific question about the Occupational Health and Safety Act. You will receive a written reply by e-mail.

Examples of questions we have answered

A specific question, a specific answer

  1. 01An employee started work six months ago and the initial health check has not been done. How do we resolve this without it counting as a violation?
  2. 02We have 12 employees and need to carry out a risk assessment. Can we do it ourselves or do we need a service provider? What is the minimum required content?
  3. 03The Labour Inspectorate's (Tööinspektsioon) enforcement campaign covers our sector. Which documents must be in order before an inspection visit?
  4. 04Two employees are refusing to attend occupational health checks. Can we require them to attend? What are the consequences for both parties?
  5. 05Some of our employees work remotely. Does the risk assessment need to cover home offices as well? How is that done in practice?

With your consent and anonymously, we select some of the questions we receive for a public FAQ. This helps employers who face similar situations.
