ABSTRACT
All these five features were important for the safety representative. Making safety representatives mandatory in all sectors was meant to ensure diffusion in the whole working life. The training requirements helped ensure that the safety representative was able to perform the duties in a proper manner. The participative element was meant to ensure that the safety representative could influence decisions affecting health and safety before the decisions were made. According to the law, undertakings with more than one safety representative shall have a senior safety representative who is responsible for coordinating the activities of the safety representatives.
