Document background
The Job Safety Assessment Form is a crucial document required under Austrian workplace safety legislation, particularly the ArbeitnehmerInnenschutzgesetz (ASchG). It must be completed whenever new work processes are introduced, significant changes occur in existing processes, or during regular safety reviews. The form documents the systematic evaluation of workplace hazards, risk assessments, and control measures, serving as both a legal compliance tool and a practical guide for maintaining workplace safety. It requires input from qualified safety personnel, affected employees, and management, ensuring a comprehensive approach to risk management. The document must be regularly updated and maintained as part of the organization's ongoing safety management system, with specific attention to Austrian regulatory requirements and industry-specific safety standards.
