OSH News

Ensuring compliance with occupational safety and health (OSH) legislation is key to maintain workers from the petrol station industry safe and healthy. Apart from exposure to highly flammable dangerous substances, they may experience accidents like trips, slips and falls from fuel leaks or hoses, as well as hits from moving vehicles. 

In addition, they deal first hand with clients and customers which can include the risk of being exposed to violent or aggressive behaviour. Conducting thorough risk assessments is essential to protect them. 

To facilitate this while providing OSH support to enterprises, EU-OSHA’s partners in Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece and Lithuania have launched free and accessible Online interactive Risk Assessment (OiRA) tools for petrol stations. Learn more here!
