The public authorities are required to provide both employers and employees with information on health and safety issues, to initiate a social dialogue on such issues and to implement control mechanisms to ensure adherence to the relevant legal provisions.
1. Information: The Ministry of Labour and Social Security informs all employer and employee organisations of the legislation currently in force and the relevant circulars, publishes information brochures and posters, organises seminars and offers support in a variety of forms for any events organised on these issues.
2. Social dialogue: The focal point for the social dialogue on health and safety issues is the Council for Health and Safety at Work and the Prefectural Council on Health and Safety at Work.
