Sébastien & Yohann — OFSIP Your designated external workers in Luxembourg
Legal obligation for any business Service agreement formalized Single point of contact & responsive
Do you recognise yourself?

La sécurité au travail vous incombe. Mais vous ne disposez pas toujours des ressources ou des compétences nécessaires en interne.

Appointing a safety officer is obligatory. However, you also need the time, the skills, and the availability. If any of these situations resonate with you, outsourcing is for you.

No internal expertise

No one in the company has the required regulatory training to take on the role of designated worker.

Lack of time

Your HR department or manager defaults to «making do» without ever being able to truly commit to it. Prevention comes as an afterthought.

Pas de volontaire

Personne dans votre entreprise ne souhaite prendre ce rôle.

Growing business

Your staff is increasing, and so are your obligations. You need to structure prevention before the risks accumulate.

Want to structure

You want a truly guided prevention approach, not a dusty binder or tick-box exercises.

Fragile continuity

A departure, an absence, a sick leave... and the company finds itself without anyone officially competent.

Our solution

An External Designated Worker, fully covered by OFSIP

The designated worker is the person responsible for implementing health and safety measures in your company: they identify risks, put corrective actions in place, and manage your legal compliance.

When this skill does not exist – or is not available – internally, Luxembourgish law expressly authorises the outsourcing of this function. This is precisely our job: we become your designated worker, within a clear and secure contractual framework.

How is the support going? An initial diagnosis, a prioritised action plan, regular on-site safety visits, and reporting that always keeps you informed and up to date.

What is included in the service

  • Full diagnostic of your situation and your risks
  • Action plan prioritised and budgeted
  • Safety visits regularly on the ground
  • Record keeping and required documents
  • Reporting and pilotage regulars
  • Service agreement formalised
  • ITM Relation and occupational health service
Why outsource?

Compliance without the burden, expertise without the hire

Recruiting and training a designated worker internally costs time and money, and doesn't resolve the issue of continuity. Outsourcing offers you an immediate, comprehensive, and lasting solution.

Up-to-date expertise

A trained professional specialised in S&ST, proficient in Luxembourgish regulations and their developments.

A real time saver

You focus on your core business. We manage prevention, registers and deadlines.

Guaranteed compliance

You meet your legal obligation with complete peace of mind, even without internal resources available.

Human support

A dedicated, on-the-ground contact who is helpful and available, not an anonymous hotline.

An impartial look

An external speaker provides an objective diagnosis, free from internal biases or ingrained habits.

Continuous provision

No more disruption due to departure or absence: the function remains covered at all times.

You are compliant, and you prove it

Up-to-date documents, maintained register, tracked actions: you approach an ITM inspection with a clear conscience.

Un expert met son temps à votre disposition

No more regulatory searches and administrative security management: we'll take care of it.

You manage your budget well

Predictable and controlled costs, without the burdens of recruitment or the hidden costs of non-compliance.

You protect your teams.

Fewer accidents, fewer absences, a safety culture that becomes an asset to your organisation.

What you gain from it

Tangible benefits, not a list of services

Outsourcing your designated worker isn't just ticking another box. It's about transforming a regulatory constraint into peace of mind and sustainable added value for your business.

Questions fréquentes

Everything you need to know

Answers to the questions that managers and HR/HSE managers have in Luxembourg.

Is it legal to outsource my designated worker in Luxembourg?
Yes. The Grand Ducal Regulation of 9 June 2006 requires the appointment of one or more workers responsible for health and safety. When a company does not have competent or available internal resources, the law expressly provides for the possibility of using external expertise. This is the framework within which OFSIP operates.
Are all businesses concerned by this obligation?
Yes, the obligation applies to all businesses, regardless of their size, sector, or risk level. The number of designated workers and the level of training required depend on the workforce size and the positions at risk.
Your company risks a fine if it does not have a designated worker.
The absence of formal designation constitutes a non-compliance that can be identified during an ITM inspection, with associated measures and sanctions. Beyond the legal risk, it is primarily the safety of your employees and your liability in the event of an accident that are at stake.
How much does it cost to outsource a designated worker?
The cost depends on your workforce, your sector, and the level of support you require. We will provide a personalised and transparent proposal after an initial discussion. Request a free assessment to receive a tailored quote.
How does the setup proceed?
In five steps: initial consultation, diagnosis of your needs, personalised proposal, implementation (service agreement), followed by continuous monitoring with site visits and reporting.
What is the commitment period?
Our support services are generally part of an annual, renewable plan to ensure consistent monitoring and the continuity of your compliance. The precise terms and conditions are defined in the service contract.
How often do you attend site visits?
The frequency is adapted to your business and defined in the annual plan: regular safety visits, site interventions and follow-up meetings. You know in advance when we will be attending.
What is an internal certificate of insufficiency?
This is the document that justifies that no competent or available employee can assume the role internally, and which forms the basis for engaging an external designated worker. We integrate it into our service when necessary.
Do you operate in my business sector?
We support businesses from various sectors (services, property, retail, light industry, services...). The approach is tailored to your specific risks. Please indicate your sector in the form for a precise response.
Do you also manage the relationship with the ITM and occupational health?
Yes. The designated worker maintains relations with the Labour and Mines Inspectorate, inspection bodies and the occupational health service. We provide this link as part of our mission.
What happens in the event of a check during the accompaniment?
Your documents are up to date, your records kept and your actions tracked. We prepare you and can support you during an inspection, which makes all the difference to the peace of mind during your dealings with the inspector.
Do you offer other prevention services?
Yes: fire safety training, first aid, prevention of MSDs and workstation optimisation, psychosocial risks, audits and ISO 45001 compliance. The outsourcing of the designated worker naturally complements these services.
How soon can I receive support?
Following your request, we will contact you within 48 hours for an initial discussion. The operational setup can then begin quickly, depending on the diagnosis and your priorities.
