Subvention Prévention TPE - Safer equipment (Centre-Ouest)
Amount or form of support: a grant whose amount will depend on the investments made, up to €25,000 per business. Targeted operations: improving the safety of machines in service — works or purchases notably to reduce machine risk (excluding compliance work) and to address fall risks or risks from hazardous chemical agents or CMR substances inherent to the work equipment.
Do you need to reduce a mechanical risk, a fall or chemical exposure linked to a machine? The regional “Équipement plus sûr” grant can help finance a safety improvement. It should not be confused with financing regulatory compliance work that would already be compulsory.

Who can apply
Businesses with fewer than 50 employees within the Carsat Centre-Ouest area, subject to the grant’s administrative and technical conditions. The application must concern a clearly identified prevention investment, not just compulsory compliance work.
Eligibility conditions
This regional aid from Carsat Centre-Ouest is for businesses with fewer than 50 employees that want to improve the safety of a machine in service or add safety options to a new machine. Operations can address mechanical risks, fall risks or risks from hazardous chemical agents or substances that are carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic for reproduction (CMR) inherent to the equipment. Regulatory compliance alone is excluded; the project must deliver a distinct prevention improvement and be validated under the regional rules.
What the scheme covers
The entry notably covers works or purchases that improve the safety of machines in service, addressing fall risks or exposure to hazardous chemical agents/CMR substances inherent to the equipment, adding prevention tools and fitting out workstations. For new machines, only options that contribute to a safety improvement provided for in the rules can be accepted.
Amount and funding terms
The regional entry indicates an amount calculated according to the investments, capped at €25,000 per business. The rate, eligible costs and supporting documents depend on the Carsat Centre-Ouest rules in force; do not assume a single rate if the page does not specify one.
How to apply
1. Describe the machine, the workstation and the risk the investment must reduce. 2. Distinguish the prevention improvement from any compulsory compliance work. 3. Have the equipment, works and safety options quoted separately, with a technical description. 4. Ask Carsat Centre-Ouest to confirm eligibility, the rate and the order of steps before ordering. 5. Submit the application and keep the quotes, invoices, proof of payment and documents showing the improvement made.
