403-6 Promotion of
worker health
Personal and medical information is treated in strict confidence
and can be passed on to Riwal only if the employee has given his
consent.
Riwal entities also have collective accident insurances. This insurance offers the possibility to cope with (financial) consequences,
which occur because of accidental death or accidental permanent disability. Employees on the payroll are insured and in some
cases temporary employees or trainees are as well.
To protect our employees during travels we have taken out an
extended global travel insurance which provides coverage for all
reasonable medical costs during travel.
UN SDGoal 3 (good health and wellbeing) is one of the priority
goals that Riwal prioritises. These are some of our voluntary health
promotion programs and/or services that Riwal provides and are
available for all employees:
