Is affiliation with an external prevention service mandatory?
Yes. In Belgium, all employers must act to ensure the wellbeing of their employees. If a company does not have all the necessary expertise itself, it is required to affiliate itself with an external service for prevention and protection at work. This gives employers access to specialised support in the areas of health, safety and wellbeing.
Questions about affiliation
The following are answers to frequently asked questions.
-
A statutory notice period of six months applies if you want to change your external service. Send a notice of termination to your current service by 30 June at the latest; IDEWE can provide you with a template for this.
If you do decide to make the switch to IDEWE, we will handle the entire transition. You will be fully operational with us from 1 January. Expect a kick-off meeting in the autumn, a straightforward transfer of data, an introduction to your service team, a direct exchange of medical records and training on our customer portal and planning tool. -
At IDEWE, you pay a fixed amount per employee. This is the same whether or not they are under health monitoring. The legislation sets a minimum rate based on your company’s main activity, according to five rate groups. If you had no more than five employees on 30 November of the previous year, you enjoy a favourable micro-rate for the following year.
