Subsection 1: Group, company or establishment occupational health and prevention services.

A group, company or establishment occupational health and prevention service may be set up when the number of employees monitored is 500 or more. The group occupational health and prevention service is set up by agreement between all or some of the companies in the group.

The company or establishment occupational health and prevention service is administered by the employer under the supervision of the social and economic committee. The committee is consulted on matters relating to the organisation and operation of the occupational health and safety service.

The Social and Economic Committee is informed of observations made and formal notices served by the Labour Inspectorate in the field of occupational health, as well as technical observations made by the Labour Medical Inspectorate.

Specific procedures for managing the occupational health and prevention service may be established by group or company agreement or, failing that, by agreement between the employer and the social and economic committee. In the case of a group prevention and occupational health service, the agreement sets out the conditions under which the supervision and consultation provided for in article D. 4622-6 are carried out.
