7. Work organisation
• Working time, training, employee involvement, etc.
8. Personnel and prevention
• First aid, work related health complaints, precautionary measures
for criminal offences and robberies etc.
OiRA working group decisions
• Risk assessment items are based on EU legislation & the
hairdresser’ s agreement
• Phrasing is kept as close as possible to the text in the
agreement
• For solutions: If there is no EU legislation or information in
the agreement:
• It’s possible to include information phrased as a
recommendation
Examples:
• There is sufficient space around hair wash installations and
hairdressing chairs to work comfortably and safely
• Handheld hairdryers are as light and as quiet as possible
Schedule
•
New draft end April 2014
•
Feedback from the working group by end May 2014
•
Possible changes done until end June 2014
•
Presentation of the tool in the SSD 2. July 2014
•
Official launch of the tool?
Follow up for national tools
If social partners are interested in implementing the tool in their
Member State, EU-OSHA has possibilities to support you:
Two approaches:
1. Social partners from MS that are already OiRA partners and don’t
have a hairdressers tool yet (France, Latvia, Lithuania, Czech
Republic, Iceland, Malta, Italy, Slovakia)
2. Social partners from MS that are no OiRA partners yet
• We will have to contact the authorities
• Figure out in how far they want to be involved
• Find a way of dealing with the translation of the software
• Develop a national version of the tool
