Prilog 2. Postupanje u skladu sa socijalnim pravom

Naši su zaposlenici naš najvažniji resurs. Naša je politika postupanje u skladu s mjerodavnim zakonima i propisima, među kojima su oni o radnom vremenu, naknadama, ljudskim pravima i radnim uvjetima.

Tijekom 2024. godine Društvo je postupalo u skladu sa sljedećim zakonima:

• 1. Zakon o radu
• 1. Zakon o zaštiti na radu

Društvo nema obvezu pridržavanja odredbi Zakona o zaštiti okoliša.

Tijekom 2024. godine nije bilo provođenja inspekcija bilo kojeg regulatornog tijela iz područja socijalnih prava, kao ni kršenja mjerodavnih zakona, propisa ni normi te nisu poduzimane korektivne mjere ni propisivane kazne u vezi s takvim kršenjem.

Tijekom 2024. godine nije bilo bitnih obavijesti, izvještaja ni drugog priopćavanja o zaštiti okoliša i socijalnim pitanjima u vezi s poslovanjem i aktivnostima Društva koje Društvo dostavlja bilo kojem regulatornom tijelu.

Prilog 3. Informacije o upravljanju zaštitom zdravlja i sigurnosti na radnom mjestu

Društvo prepoznaje važnost sprječavanja ili ublažavanja nepovoljnih utjecaja i problema za zdravlje i sigurnost radnika.

Društvo je donijelo Pravilnik o zaštiti na radu kojim se uređuje njegov pristup u pogledu vlastite veličine i radne snage u skladu s nacionalnim pravom.

Dana 02.02.2024. godine, Institut za sigurnost Zagreb proveo je ispitivanje električnih instalacija u uredima Burze, a 26.03.2024. proveden je nadzor nad primjenom mjera i utvrđena sukladnost sa svim osnovnim i posebnim pravilima zaštite na radu, te je utvrđena usklađenost sa svim osnovnim i posebnim pravilima zaštite na radu.

Društvo svojim radnicima pruža odgovarajuće informacije, smjernice i obuku u vezi s opasnostima za zdravlje i sigurnost, rizicima, zaštitnim i preventivnim mjerama i mehanizmima za slučaj nužde koji su potrebni za njihovu sigurnost.

Tijekom 2024. godine, nije bilo ozljeda na radu, nezgoda koje bi prouzročile gubitak radnog vremena ni nesreća, kao ni poduzimanja ili planiranja olakšavajućih mjera od strane Društva. Tijekom 2024. godine četri zaposlenika upućena su na obaveznu kontrolu vida, a dva nova zaposlenika upućena su na osposobljavanje iz zaštite na radu i zaštite od požara.
