The employer according to legislative decree 81/2008 (“Testo Unico Sicurezza”)
The identification of the employer is not always a matter of easy solution, since, especially within companies with complex structures, it is possible to identify multiple subjects assigned to satisfy the position of guarantee assumed by the person who, according to the Testo Unico Sicurezza, has the qualification of employer. The purpose of this study is to provide precise indications that allow an easy identification of the employer and other subjects who, pursuant to Legislative Decree 81/2008, are responsible for safety in the workplace, so that each company can define its own organizational structure and the related responsibilities in compliance with the law without necessarily concentrating them on the Board of Directors or on the company owner.
