HSE Services

HEALTH, SAFETY & ENVIRONMENT - A KEY FACTOR FOR CONFIDENCE

Why are HSE Services important for the market?

In all industrial sectors - including energy, manufacturing, construction, transportation, and logistics - HSE compliance is not only a legal obligation but also a key factor for operational resilience and stakeholder confidence. 

Organizations must comply with:

  • Greek Labor Law and HSE regulatory framework (Ν. 3850/2010, Π.Δ. 17/96, Π.Δ. 159/99, ΚΥΑ 12044/613/2007)
  • EU Framework Directive 89/391/EEC and related occupational safety directives
  • SEVESO III Directive (2012/18/EU) for hazardous industries
  • ISO 45001 (Occupational Health & Safety), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management)
  • Environmental permitting legislation (Law 4014/2011 and related ΚΥΑs)
  • REACH & CLP Regulations for chemical safety.

A robust HSE strategy reduces incidents, ensures legal compliance, and promotes sustainable operations.
