"A risk may arise in particular from 1. the design and equipment of the workplace and the working station, 2. physical, chemical and biological effects, 3. the design, selection and use of work equipment, especially of working materials, machinery, equipment and installations and the handling thereof, 4. the design of work and production processes, work sequences and working time and their interaction, 5. inadequate qualification and instruction of employees, 6. mental stress at work."
"The employer needs to have the (...) necessary documents at his disposal that show both the result of the risk assessment, the occupational safety and health measures he has specified and the result of their verification. (...) The employer needs to record any accidents in his company where an employee is killed or injured or is totally or partially incapable to work for more than three days."
"The employer needs to take measures to ensure that only workers who have received appropriate prior instructions have access to particularly hazardous working areas. The employer has to take steps to ensure that all workers who are or may be exposed to an immediate significant hazard are informed as early as possible of that hazard and of the protective measures taken or to be taken." (To guarantee this when having more than 500 employees requires a very precise documentation of who has been instructed into what and when. Just one single mistake can have serious consequences).
