A new guideline for selecting and training temporary employees was introduced for Brenntag EMEA at the start of 2017. In both 2017 and 2018, the number of accidents resulting in lost work days among temporary employees was only half the level recorded in the preceding years.
At the same time, the total number of incidents reported in the third quarter of both years was significantly lower compared to previous years. A relatively high number of temporary employees work for the company in the third quarter, as the holiday period in Europe occurs during this time.
