Familiarize yourself with major revisions to the “Occupational Safety and Health Act”

(FWA 2026/02/05)The main reason for recent revisions to the “Occupational Safety and Health Act” was to improve the overall work environment, with a focus on two key areas – occupational hazard prevention and workplace bullying

Occupational hazard prevention

Strengthens hazard prevention at source – Project planning must prioritize a risk assessment so hazards can be identified at source and their occurrence effectively prevented

Enhances contractor management – Contractors at all level are required to cooperate, and the main contractor must implement hazard prevention measures and ensure management responsibilities are met

Workplace bullying

Introduces workplace bullying prevention measures – Clearly defines investigation procedures, assists victim recovery, and creates a friendly work environment

Increases maximum fine – For those who fail to make improvements, the name of the organization and responsible person will be made public. Fines will also be increased to encourage companies to take the implementation of safety measures more seriously

The “Occupational Safety and Health Act” ensures everyone can work with peace of mind in the workplace
