The deadline to prepare the risk assessment for domestic workers ends on November 14
The next November 14 ends the deadline for all employers who have domestic workers in their charge to have an evaluation of the risks to their safety and health and adopt the necessary preventive measures to eliminate or reduce and control such risks.
The regulatory development of this right was carried out by the Royal Decree 893/2024, which contemplates the obligation of the employer to carry out an initial evaluation of the risks to the safety and health of those who provide services in the family home, generate a prevention plan and adopt the necessary preventive measures to eliminate or reduce and control such risks, documenting them in writing with the specific date of their adoption. The rule established that compliance with these obligations was not required until six months had elapsed from the making available of the free tool that allowed this risk assessment to be carried out, a deadline that now expires next Friday.
The Ministry of Labor and Social Economy together with the INSST developed said IT tool as a prevention instrument, free and available through the portal. Prevención10.es and that allows employers to comply with their new legal obligations and that does not generate economic or bureaucratic burdens.
The system allows obtaining a document with the evaluation of risks at home, the preventive measures that must be implemented and the information materials that must be delivered to people workers.
InFraternidad-Muprespa we wanted to help our mutual members by explaining this new tool in detail for which we held a webinar on June 11 that was titled “How to take on prevention, also for domestic workers, with Prevention10.es" and which was taught by our prevention consultants Elena Cano and Felipe Cuellar.
