CARSAT Midi-Pyrénées: what aid is available to prevent occupational risks in business?

The role of CARSAT Midi-Pyrénées

CARSAT Midi-Pyrénées acts on behalf of Assurance Maladie — Risques professionnels to help businesses reduce occupational accidents and diseases. Its financial offer includes in particular prevention grants for micro-businesses, prevention contracts for certain SMEs, and other prevention-related mechanisms. Expenses and criteria vary according to the scheme, the risk addressed and company size.

The two grants listed in Capital OS

Two listings are linked to this fund in the reference database: « Locaux + sûrs », which targets risk prevention from the design or layout stage of premises, and « Silence + », which aims to reduce employees’ noise exposure through equipment, layout changes or acoustic measures.

Locaux + sûrs: building prevention into premises

The « Locaux + sûrs » grant is listed for prevention investments covering in particular fall protection and secure access, circulation routes and separation of traffic flows, natural lighting and acoustic absorption in certain workplace premises. It aims to build risk prevention into the design or layout of spaces from the outset.

Silence +: reducing noise exposure

The « Silence + » grant aims to reduce employees’ exposure to noise. The listed operations include replacing noisy equipment, certain acoustic layout changes, enclosing or isolating workstations and, under certain conditions, additional personal protective equipment. An acoustic study or sound measurements may be required for certain operations.

Who can apply for these grants?

The reference database listings present prevention schemes aimed at micro-businesses, in particular businesses with 1 to 49 employees for Silence + and micro-businesses for Locaux + sûrs. Social obligations, the single risk assessment document, membership of the occupational health and prevention service, informing staff representatives and purchasing new equipment may be part of the criteria depending on the scheme.

How do you prepare the application?

Describe the occupational risk to be addressed, link each expense to a prevention measure and check the corresponding official listing. Prepare quotes, technical specifications, elements of the single risk assessment document and, where required, measurement reports or acoustic studies. Business applications generally go through the company account on net-entreprises.fr, depending on the scheme.
