Prevention of risks for domestic workers: how to comply with the rule?
From Friday 14 November, persons who have hired a domestic worker must complete a mandatory report for the assessment of occupational risks, which are all key to the proper conduct of the procedure.
Since Friday, 14 November, people who have hired a domestic worker must complete a mandatory report for the assessment of occupational risks, however, the platform has been in trouble on the first day, as indicated by the Ministry of Labour.
The same ministry has reported that the website was the subject of a computer attack this Friday that prevented the procedure.
This is all we need to know about the procedure:
What rules protect this duty?
The Royal Decree on Home Safety and Health has set a period of six months for risk assessment since the launch of the platform, so employers have had to complete the evaluation and implement the necessary measures by November.
Where's the process going?
The evaluation is carried out on the Prevencion10 platform (www.prevencion10.es) in the Home Prevention section, where data must be entered from the employer, from the worker. The website, if the risks are detected, generates evaluation and suggests improvements. However, the platform has problems this Friday due to high demand.
What documentation is needed?
At the end of the process, the "Occupational Risk Prevention Plan" must be downloaded. It must be signed by the employer and stored for inspection purposes.
Is there any other duty?
The law provides for trainingin prevention and voluntary health examinations , but these measures are pending the development of SEPE courses and their incorporation into the health system.
Who does it affect?
The obligation is limited to the recruitment ofdomestic workers. España has about 348,000 workers affiliated with this regime, although the group exceeds 463,000 people, which shows that there are many unregistered workers.
Can there be punishment?
Yes, failure to have the plan signed or not to implement preventive measures could result in fines ranging from EUR 45 to EUR 49,180 depending on gravity.
