A public call for participation in the technical support and grants award programme as part of investment support for the purpose of improving occupational health and safety (including protection measures against COVID-19) in the agri-food sector in Bosnia and Herzegovina has been published within the EU4BusinessRecovery project, which is co-financed by the European Union and the Federal Republic of Germany.

By publishing this public call with a value of 600,000 KM, the European Union will enable companies to participate in a programme that includes training and technical and financial support in relation to occupational health and safety. Following participation in the training and technical support offered by the project, companies will qualify for financial support in the form of investments amounting to between 10,000 and 30,000 KM, which will be used to implement the recommended occupational health and safety measures (including also measures against COVID-19).

Selected companies will participate in free training on legal aspects and the importance of applying occupational health and safety measures. In addition to this, the companies will also be provided technical support in order to assess the current state of occupational health and safety, verify working environment conditions and be provided with recommendations for the improvement of working environment.
