How we achieve a good working environment

By working environment we mean everything that we are affected by in our work: premises, equipment, furnishings, machinery, chemical products, working methods and work organization, as well as the cooperation and human contacts that the work provides and requires. In other words, Avisera’s physical, mental and social conditions have an impact on the working environment. This means that every business decision has a work environment impact and that a good work environment is a common concern for Avisera’s management and employees.

Commitment

The stated ambition of leadership and organization is to encourage employees to take responsibility for their work and work situation. Open everyday communication and close collaboration are a basic prerequisite for employees’ commitment.

By elucidating work environment issues in management, staff meetings and development interviews, further engagement can be created. Work environment issues should be a natural feature of daily operations.

Responsibility

As an employer, it is the responsibility of Avisera to systematically plan, manage and control the business so that the regulations of the working environment legislation (the Work Environment Act, the Work Environment Regulation and the Work Environment Authority) are complied with.

Employees must show their personal responsibility for the work environment by following instructions, rules and routines and paying attention to and reporting incidents, risks and threats to a good work environment. All employees at Avisera should work for a good working environment.
