About this statute

This text is the preamble to the Law on Safety and Health at Work. This provision says the law aims to improve workers’ safety and health at work. This article says the law applies across public, private, public-private, and central/local state administration sectors, and also covers listed groups of people in practical work or training. It does not apply to sectors governed by special laws, including the Kosovo Security Force, police, fire service, and protection-and-rescue services. This article defines key terms used in the law, including employer, employee, workplace safety and health, risk, occupational disease, preventive measures, workplace, risk assessment document, safety officer, specialized services, work accident, labour inspectorate, and the ministry. The Government must establish the National Council for Occupational Safety and Health, and the Council may propose, recommend, and draft policies and monitor workplace safety and health.
