Regarding Occupational Health and Safety

Dear Member,
With reference to the letter sent to our Chamber by TOBB, as of 1 January 2025, the "Occupational Health and Safety Services" article of the Occupational Health and Safety Law, for public workplaces and workplaces with fewer than 50 employees classified in the less hazardous class, has entered into force for all workplaces.
Accordingly, employers or employer representatives of workplaces with fewer than 50 employees classified in the less hazardous class may fulfil this obligation by assigning suitably qualified personnel from among their employees, by undertaking it themselves if they hold the necessary certificate, by receiving services from OSGBs and ÇASMERs authorised by the Ministry, or by completing the training announced by the Ministry without the requirement to assign an Occupational Safety Specialist and Workplace Physician.
The statement made by the Ministry of Labour and Social Security is attached to the letter.

Annex: Regarding Occupational Health and Safety

Kind regards,
Elazığ Chamber of Commerce and Industry
