Why it's 50% cheaper

Half of your RI&E is already done. You just didn't know it yet.

A classic RI&E provider starts from scratch and bills for the entire process. We start with what is already in the Well Aware platform and only bill for the additional work.

WHAT IS THE RI&E AGAIN?

Mandatory for every company with employees.

The Risk Inventory & Evaluation (RI&E) is the legal foundation of your health and safety policy. Under Article 5 of the Working Conditions Act, every employer is required to systematically identify and evaluate workplace risks and create a Plan of Action.

For companies with 25 or more employees, validation by a certified health and safety expert is mandatory. Without a valid RI&E, you risk fines and failing your ISO audit.

How it works

From submission form to certified RI&E in 10 to 12 weeks.

Five clear steps, with defined responsibilities and timelines. We handle the heavy lifting; you only need to step in when it is truly necessary.

Frequently asked questions

Everything HR needs to know about the RI&E

Why can you provide it 50% cheaper?

A traditional RI&E provider invoices for the entire study, including psychosocial risk, culture, and absenteeism analysis. If you are a Well Aware customer, all of that is already in the platform. We start with that existing data and only invoice for the additional work: extra safety questions, site visits, reporting, and assessment. This way, you pay half on average.

Is the RI&E actually valid for the Labor Inspectorate?

Yes. We provide a complete RI&E in accordance with Article 5 of the Working Conditions Act, including a Plan of Action. For organizations with more than 25 employees, the legally required assessment by a certified expert is included in the price. This makes the RI&E legally valid for the Labor Inspectorate and suitable for ISO audits.

What if we are not yet a Well Aware customer?

We can still conduct your RI&E, but without the 50% discount. If you are considering using Well Aware for employee surveys, health checks, and psychosocial risk assessments as well, we can integrate the RI&E process into the implementation. This often leads to significant savings over the long term.

What about multiple branches or locations?

We conduct the inventory per location in accordance with Occupational Health and Safety Act requirements. For companies with similar locations, such as retail chains or distribution centers, we use a sampling method and incorporate the findings into one overarching RI&E with a per-location Plan of Action.

Can the RI&E also be used for an ISO audit?

Yes. The validated RI&E is directly applicable for ISO 45001 (occupational health and safety management system) and aligns with ISO 27001 (information security) for areas where there is overlap. This makes the process particularly valuable for companies certifying against multiple ISO standards.

What if the RI&E shows that things need to change?

That is exactly what the Plan of Action is for. We formulate concrete actions with owners, deadlines, and priorities. For structural PSA improvements, you can immediately deploy Well Aware’s tools, such as interventions, coaching, and reporting channels. For physical adjustments to buildings or workstations, we advise on appropriate next steps without tying you to a specific provider.

How often does an RI&E need to be updated?

Legally, the RI&E must remain up to date. In practice, this means a major review every 4 to 5 years, and interim updates following significant changes such as relocations, new processes, or mergers. Because PSA data in Well Aware is tracked continuously, that part remains automatically up to date.

Do we get help with executing the Plan of Action?

Yes. Through Well Aware, we support HR in following up on psychosocial risk (PSA) actions, such as signs of work pressure or inappropriate behavior. For physical and organizational actions, we assist with prioritization and monitoring, but the execution remains under your own management or via existing occupational health partners.
