YOU DEVELOP SUSTAINABLE ENERGY SOURCES TO PROTECT OUR FUTURE, WE TAKE CARE OF PROTECTING YOUR PRESENT

The renewable energy industry exposes workers to a variety of potential hazards in the course of their operations. These risks are inherent in the manufacturing, installing and maintaining equipment that generates energy from renewable sources. Energy sectors, such as solar, wind, hydroelectric and biogas, present specific occupational health and safety challenges for professionals working in these demanding environments.

• Solar energy and chemical hazards: The solar industry can expose workers to specific chemical hazards, particularly during the manufacture and installation of solar panels. Certain chemicals used in producing solar cells can cause health hazards if handled inappropriately. In addition, the sealing materials and adhesives used during installation may contain harmful substances.
• Hydroelectricity and electrical hazards: Workers in hydroelectric power plants can be confronted with electrical hazards when maintaining electrical installations. Contact with electrical systems can present serious hazards, increasing the risk of electrocution.
• Biogas and environmental risks: Biogas professionals are exposed to environmental risks, such as toxic gas emissions and handling organic waste. These elements can lead to health and environmental risks if adequate safety measures are not implemented.

These risks underline the importance of safety practices and appropriate protective equipment for renewable energy workers. Our commitment to safety is reflected in creating specific equipment designed to reduce occupational hazards by providing adequate protection.
