Conclusions issues and questions
Traditional approaches to HampS representation that involve trade unions are effective
But1048714 The presence of these and other preconditions foreffectiveness is diminishing
They do not reach the majority of workplaces nor deal effectively with small workplaces multiemployer worksites precarious workers etc

Legislation = PolicyMachinery amp Equipments = Cars
Work Environment = RoadsWork Equipment = All tools
Human Factor = Drivers amp co-passangers
Social Dialogue = Culture

The company base expanded significantly from nineties For each existing enterprise fifty new ones were created It presents 500 increase in the number of enterprises One visit of labour inspectors in the enterprise per 10 years

Role of Labour Inspections
HampS = TrafficLabour Inspection = Police
Legislation = PolicyMachinery amp Equipments = Cars
Work Environment = RoadsWork Equipment = All tools
Human Factor = Drivers amp co-passangers
Social Dialogue = Culture
Is the labour inspection a crucial player in the this field How effective labour inspection can be Is it reasonable to change the mission of labour inspection from enforcement to advisory role
The company base expanded significantly from nineties For each existing enterprise fifty new ones were created It presents 500 increase in the number of enterprises One visit of labour inspectors in the enterprise per 10 years

Role of Labour Inspections
HampS = TrafficLabour Inspection = Police
Legislation = PolicyMachinery amp Equipments = Cars
Work Environment = RoadsWork Equipment = All tools
Human Factor = Drivers amp co-passangers
Social Dialogue = Culture
Is the labour inspection a crucial player in the this field How effective labour inspection can be Is it reasonable to change the mission of labour inspection from enforcement to advisory role

Role of Labour Inspections
HampS = TrafficLabour Inspection = Police
Legislation = PolicyMachinery amp Equipments = Cars
Work Environment = RoadsWork Equipment = All tools
Human Factor = Drivers amp co-passangers
Social Dialogue = Culture
Is the labour inspection a crucial player in the this field How effective labour inspection can be Is it reasonable to change the mission of labour inspection from enforcement to advisory role
The company base expanded significantly from nineties For each existing enterprise fifty new ones were created It presents 500 increase in the number of enterprises One visit of labour inspectors in the enterprise per 10 years
