What matters here
The region lies in Lower Saxony. Typical for the region are insurers in Hanover, public administration, associations and the commercial areas of industrial and research sites. These are office and administrative businesses throughout, so support group III with 0.5 hours of basic support per employee and year.
Insurers and public administration work long screen hours at fixed desks. The focus is accordingly on ergonomics and whether screening is actually offered. Associations and research-related bodies often have several small sites, which affects first-aid organisation: first aiders and supplies must be in place at each site, not only at head office.
What differs regionally
The duties themselves are identical nationwide. Two things differ:
- The district office of your employers' liability insurance association. For office businesses this is usually the Verwaltungs-Berufsgenossenschaft. In this region three VBG district offices share the territory: Bielefeld for Hannover, Oldenburg, Osnabrück, Hildesheim and Wilhelmshaven; Erfurt for Braunschweig, Wolfsburg, Göttingen and Salzgitter; Hamburg for Delmenhorst. What decides is the postcode of your site, not the federal state.
- The state occupational safety authority. This is a matter for the federal states. Responsible here are the state trade supervisory offices. It can act independently of the insurance association.
What to do when post arrives is set out in A letter from the employers' liability insurance association.
