Expert Instructions
In order to ensure a safe workplace, every employee must be instructed at regular intervals in accordance with the Occupational Safety and Health Act (ArbSchG) and numerous occupational safety regulations. According to § 12 ArbSchG and § 4 DGUV regulation 1, employees in a company must be instructed at least once a year with regard to safety and health protection; minors at least every six months.
