The businesses it reaches
The ArbeitnehmerInnenschutzgesetz, BGBl. Nr. 450/1994, zuletzt geändert durch BGBl. I Nr. 56/2024, governs employers in Austria and the safety and health protection of their employees. It reaches businesses across every sector, including construction firms, manufacturing plants, waste producers, online sellers with warehouse operations, and service providers with staff on site. The toolkit organises the obligations this instrument places on those employers into working files that follow the phases of a compliance review.
The working files walk through the employer's general duties to ensure safety and health protection, the assessment of hazards and the measures derived from it, and the information and instruction owed to employees. They continue through first aid, the cost-bearing rules, the documentation and record-keeping duties, and the provisions on safety representatives and specialised safety personnel. Each file sets out open questions a business answers from its own records, and the statutory text is carried verbatim beside each duty.
Sections are served through a connector inside Claude, so nothing is downloaded and nothing is installed. The documents that come back are dated compliance reports the business keeps in its own file. The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised.

Questions and answers
Which businesses does the ArbeitnehmerInnenschutzgesetz concern?
It concerns employers in Austria and the protection of their employees' safety and health. That covers construction firms, manufacturing plants, waste producers, online sellers with warehouse staff, and service providers with employees on site. The toolkit's working files are built around the duties these employers owe.
What does the toolkit contain?
It is a set of 44 working files that organise the instrument's obligations into phases of open questions. A business answers those questions from its own records, and the statutory text is carried verbatim beside each duty. The files cover the employer's general duties, hazard assessment, information and instruction, first aid, cost-bearing, documentation, and safety personnel.
How are the sections delivered?
The sections are served through a connector inside Claude. Nothing is downloaded and nothing is installed. A business works through the open questions within that environment.
What documents does a business receive?
The documents that come back are dated compliance reports. The business keeps them in its own file. They record the answers given to the open questions in each working file.
Does the toolkit tell a business what to do?
No. The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective. It carries what the authority wrote, organised into open questions. The business decides how to answer them from its own records.
Which duties does the toolkit cover on hazard assessment?
The working files address the employer's duty to assess hazards and the measures derived from that assessment. They also cover the general duties to ensure safety and health protection at work. Each duty is paired with the statutory text.
Does the toolkit cover first aid and emergency arrangements?
Yes. One working file addresses first aid, including the employer's obligations in that area. The open questions ask the business to set out what it has arranged from its own records.
What does the toolkit say about documentation and record-keeping?
The working files include the documentation and record-keeping duties the instrument places on employers. The open questions ask a business to identify the records it holds. The dated compliance reports produced at the end support that file.
Does the toolkit cover safety representatives and specialised safety personnel?
Yes. The working files address the provisions on safety representatives and on specialised safety personnel. The open questions ask the business to set out how those roles are filled from its own records.
Is the toolkit suitable for a small business with few employees?
The instrument applies to employers regardless of size, and the toolkit follows its duties. A small business answers the same open questions from its own records. The dated compliance reports it receives stay in its own file.
