Evaluation in the context of employee protection is a systematic process in which hazards to safety and health at work are identified and assessed. According to the Employee Protection Act (AT) or the Occupational Health and Safety Act (DE), employers are obliged to evaluate activities and work processes and to record this process and its results in safety and health protection documents. Subsequently, suitable measures to eliminate or minimize the hazards must be determined and implemented. Since 2013, the mandatory risk assessment has explicitly included psychological stress at work.
The subjectively experienced strain and feelings of individuals are not the subject of workplace evaluation.
