Safety first


Welcome to our theme page Safety First!


Safety at work is not just about working with safe and approved means (such as the use of machines, tools, equipment and installations), safe behavior is just as important. Clear information, clear work instructions, the correct use of resources and regular maintenance and inspection - often mandatory - increase safety. Employers and employees are jointly responsible for this.


Besides physical security, digital security at work is also an important issue. A topic of increasing importance to the industry, due to the blurring boundaries between information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT). But also due to the laws and regulations that follow these developments.
