• Use of the Health and Safety Committee (HSC)
• Appoint a Health and Safety Representatives (HSRs).

It is crucial to be flexible with participation and involvement activities. The appropriate solution depends on the business type, the size, and the risk profile of your business. This solution should also take into consideration the views and needs of your employees.
