CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 2011
Occupational risk prevention
Since the entry into effect of the Law on Occupational
Risk Prevention, Mediaset España has prepared its
Prevention Plan on a regular basis, which is valid for a five
year period. In 2011 the prevention activities defined in
the Prevention Plan in effect for the period 2010 to 2014
continued.
The Plan, prepared by the Mediaset Group’s Joint
Prevention Service (SPM), approved by HR and
Services Management and delivered to the Prevention
Representatives on the Health & Safety Committee, takes
into account applicable legislation in Spain and even fulfils
the requirements established in the PRL OSHA 18.001
– 2007 quality standard (although it has not obtained the
per tinent cer tificate).
The Plan’s objectives are decided on the basis of the
information deriving from prior year risk assessments,
inspections,external audits and prevention representatives,
among others. Its application extends to all Group
companies members of the SPM, namely: Mediaset
España, Publiespaña, Publimedia Gestión, Conecta 5
Telecinco, Telecinco Cinema, Mediacinco Car tera and in
2011, Atlas España.
Once the objectives for the five-yearly Prevention Plan
have been set, a Preventive Activity Planning is prepared,
which consists of defining the necessary programmes
and activities to attain the Plan’s objectives. All these
activities derive from the previous year’s risk assessments,
inspections, audits and any other new activity star ted
up in the organisation and requiring assessment from a
prevention viewpoint.
This Planning is delivered to the prevention representatives
at the star t of each year and is reviewed on a quar terly
basis.The document sets out the activities, area/ persons
responsible for its development, the necessary budget
for its completion and its temporary planning and the
per tinent quar terly reviews of each activity. A quar terly
repor t is delivered to the Risk Representatives on the
company’s status in this respect for their control and
information.
The Health and Safety Committee is the body to whom
queries are regularly addressed concerning the company’s
risk prevention actions. This Committee is made up of
Risk Representatives and the company’s representatives
and under takes all activities for all companies in the
Mediaset Group.
All the Group’s employees are represented on the Health
and Safety Committees.
It should be noted that the Prevention Representatives are
only present in the companies that fulfil the requirements
defined by the Law, Telecinco and Atlas being the
companies in 2011 that had a Workers’ Committee.
In any event, irrespective of whether the companies
have a Workers’ Committee and therefore Prevention
Representatives, the Health and Safety Committee caters
for the Group’s activities and companies as a whole.
Bearing out its commitment to occupational risk
prevention and its active par ticipation in the shared search
for on-going improvement in working conditions, the
Group continues to par ticipate in the Spanish Association
of Occupational Risk Prevention Services (AESPLA),
through its presence on its management board.
As par t of its firm commitment to a culture of prevention,
the Mediaset Group has continued to provide training
on “fire safety” to the employees who make up the
Intervention Team, comprising people from different
departments, generally, technical departments.
In turn, in 2011 a new self-protection plan was developed
and star ted up at the Fuencarral premises, covering all
facilities. Fire drills have been carried out at the Villaciosa
premises and healthy life style promotion has continued.
