Prevention grant for very small businesses – house building: preventing falls from height (Assurance Maladie – Risques professionnels)
Amount or form of support: a grant covering 70% of the amount excluding VAT spent on services, up to €2,200 per operation; the grant is between €1,000 and €25,000. Operations targeted — eligible costs: suitability study; delivery and removal; safe assembly and dismantling by trained staff; inspection; provision of a perimeter scaffold with safe assembly and dismantling (whenever technically possible).
On a house-building site, the lack of suitable collective protection exposes teams to falls from height. The “individual house building” grant helps fund the services linked to a secure perimeter scaffold, shared by the main trades whenever technically possible.
