The role of CARSAT Normandie

Expenses and rates depend on each programme.

The two grants linked to this funder

The Capital OS reference database links two schemes to Carsat Normandie: « Conteneur + sûr », to reduce chemical risks when receiving and unloading containers, and « Métiers de bouche », to improve the safety of employees in the food sector through targeted equipment and training.

Conteneur + sûr: preventing chemical risk

This grant targets businesses that receive containers and must assess and then prevent potential exposure to hazardous gases when opening or unloading them. The listed expenses include multi-gas detectors with suitable sensors, testing and calibration equipment, sampling probes, ventilation equipment, assisted-ventilation respiratory protection and training for a designated resource person.

Métiers de bouche: equipment and training

This grant aims to reduce occupational accidents, musculoskeletal disorders and exposure to certain risks in food trades. The listed equipment covers in particular handling, machinery, workstations, washing, reducing flour dust, and certain cooking or preparation equipment. Dedicated training on risks linked to flour dust is included in the cases specified by the scheme.

Who can apply?

The schemes target businesses based in Normandy, covered by the general scheme, generally with between 1 and 49 employees depending on the programme’s criteria. Requirements may concern membership of an occupational health and prevention service, keeping the single risk assessment document up to date, being current on AT/MP contributions, and informing staff representatives.
