Occupational Safety Specialist Service

A certified safety specialist suited to your hazard class is assigned; the legal durations are written in the contract.

Included in package prices

Under Law No. 6331 every employer must appoint a certified safety specialist suited to the hazard class. In very hazardous workplaces a class A specialist works, in hazardous ones at least class B, and in low-hazard ones class C.

Frequently asked questions

Is it mandatory to get service from an OSGB?
Every employer must appoint a safety specialist and a workplace physician. You can do this by employing them in-house or by taking service from an authorised OSGB. Depending on headcount and hazard class, in some small workplaces the employer may take on the specialist role under certain conditions; talk to us about your own case.
What determines the service durations?
They depend on headcount and hazard class: 10/20/40 minutes per employee per month for the specialist and 5/6/8 minutes for the physician (low hazard / hazardous / very hazardous). You can see your workplace's duration with the calculator on our site.
How often is the risk assessment renewed?
It is renewed every 6 years in low-hazard, 4 years in hazardous and 2 years in very hazardous workplaces. It is also updated without waiting for that period after new machinery, a process or building change, or a work accident.
How many hours is basic OHS training and how often is it given?
It is 8 hours in low-hazard, 12 in hazardous and 16 in very hazardous workplaces. Training is repeated every 3, 2 and 1 years respectively; new starters are trained before they begin work.
Is it possible to change provider?
Yes. The contract with the current provider is ended with written notice and the assignment is transferred in ISG-KATİP. We carry out the documentation and ISG-KATİP steps of this transition on your behalf; there is no legal service gap.
