The State Labour Inspectorate is implementing the campaign “Be sure that work is safe!” in 2025, calling on employers and employees to pay increased attention to occupational safety requirements, with a particular focus on the risk factor of horizontal or vertical collisions with stationary objects (falls, trips). The aim of the campaign is to promote understanding of the importance of preventive measures and everyone’s personal responsibility in creating a safe working environment.
As part of the campaign, a launch event, a competition for companies, training visits to good practice enterprises, as well as extensive communication content in various media channels will be organised.
