Sociaal-Economische Raad

SER (Sociaal-Economische Raad) is an influential organization dedicated to promoting healthy and safe working conditions across various sectors in the Netherlands. It provides essential support to both employers and employees in developing arbocatalogi, which are crucial guidelines that outline measures for managing occupational health risks. The arbocatalogus is formulated collaboratively, ensuring it meets the statutory protection levels required by Dutch labor law. Currently, more than 140 catalogs exist, covering diverse industries such as construction, healthcare, childcare, and technical services.

The SER offers an array of resources including personal assistance, handbooks from the Stichting van de Arbeid, and digital tools to help organizations create and enhance their arbocatalogus. The platform serves as a repository for valuable information aimed at fostering sustainable employment practices and enhancing workplace safety standards. For companies looking to comply with health regulations, the SER is a vital partner in shaping effective occupational health policies and practices.
