Retail and Large-Scale Distribution
Retail and large-scale distribution involve stores, supermarkets, warehouses and direct customer interaction. Occupational health must reflect shelf replenishment, manual handling, repetitive tasks and shift work.
The risk assessment under Legislative Decree 81/2008 should be specific to each role and location.
Health surveillance and training help businesses prevent musculoskeletal conditions, accidents and organisational strain.
Assessments for retail work
The competent physician defines health protocols around the actual activities and exposure.
Central coordination is especially useful for businesses with several stores or distribution sites.
Occupational health
Health assessments to evaluate
The competent physician defines examinations around the specific risks of each role. They may include:
- Musculoskeletal assessment: Manual handling and shelf replenishment
- Vision tests: Display screens and precision activities
- Audiometry: Noise exposure where relevant
- ECG: Physical effort and safety-critical work
- Blood and urine tests: Health monitoring where required
- Stress assessment: Customer contact, shifts and workload
- Specific checks: Based on the role and risk assessment
All examinations belong in a personalised health protocol aligned with Legislative Decree 81/2008 and the actual role and workplace.
