Implementing occupational safety correctly – with the legally required basic OHS supervision (Grundbetreuung)
Every company in Germany is legally required to ensure basic occupational health and safety supervision according to DGUV Regulation 2 — regardless of size or industry. This supervision is provided by (external) OHS specialists and occupational physicians*. Without such supervision, companies face fines and legal consequences, for example during inspections by the Berufsgenossenschaft or following a workplace accident.

*Ausnahmen nur für Unternehmen mit <50 MA mit dem zeitaufwendigen Kompetenzzentren- oder Unternehmermodell.
Ansonsten gilt: Jedes Unternehmen braucht externe Fachleute!

Frequently Asked Questions
Here you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions about data protection, testing, introduction, and functions of ginione.

With ginione, you can set up your occupational safety system in no time at all, ready for inspection. With our all-in-one package, which combines basic OHS supervision (Grundbetreuung) personal consultation, and software, you get a direct overview of your obligations and can quickly work through them — including legally compliant documentation.

Do you have an occupational safety audit coming up soon? Or would you like to implement the topic as quickly as possible so that you have time for other tasks again? No problem. From the initial consultation to the finished setup, it usually takes us less than a week.

No, our offer is specifically aimed at non-experts. Thanks to personal advice and the OHS Hub, you can safely fulfill your obligations even without specialist knowledge: our software helps you with a user-friendly interface, clear workflows, and smart automation, and your personal contact person will assist you with any technical questions.

ginione is primarily designed for companies that want to quickly organize their occupational safety in an audit-proof manner — without you having to become an expert yourself first. We show you step by step what is necessary, and with our all-in-one package (software + basic OHS supervision of our sister companies in the Arsipa Group), we offer all the building blocks you need to fulfill your obligations quickly and easily.

Occupational health and safety is complex and cannot be calculated uniformly — the final costs always depend on the specific circumstances of your company. Many providers of basic OHS supervision initially offer very low-priced packages that cover only the absolute minimum. After the contract is signed, additional costs for other legal obligations gradually arise. With ginione’s personal consultation, you receive an early overview of costs for software, basic OHS supervision, and any other potential expenses — transparent and predictable.

ginione is the new brand name for Bloom – because ginione is now part of ginisuite, the Arsipa Group's software product portfolio. The Bloom OHS Hub is now called ginione OHS Hub, while the Employee Assistance Program will retain its previous name, Bloom EAP, for the time being. The team remains the same, and we are continuing to develop our software and services!

Audit-proof occupational health and safety means that you are prepared at all times for visits from inspection authorities such as the Berufsgenossenschaft (BG/VBG) or the Office for Occupational Health and Safety. These authorities carry out spot checks to ensure that companies are complying with their duty of care in accordance with the law. The focus is often on the following areas:

  • Basic OHS supervision (Grundbetreuung)Have you appointed an occupational physician and an OHS specialist?
  • Organization:Are occupational safety committee (ASA) meetings held and documented regularly?
  • Prevention:Are risk assessments up to date and is the Prevention Register maintained without gaps?
  • Team readiness: Are enough fire safety officers and first aiders appointed and trained? Are the necessary Instructions documented?

Yes. The law does not differentiate between construction sites, offices, and desks in the living room. Risk assessments and prevention must also be documented for screen-based workstations and home office environments. ginione is specifically optimized for the modern working world and supports you in meeting these requirements.

Don't worry, the technical vocabulary used in occupational safety is more confusing than the issues themselves:

  • OccupationalHealth and Safety(OHS):This is the umbrella term for all measures that protect the safety and health of your team at work. In German, this is referred to asArbeitsschutz(hence the name OHS Hub).
  • Occupational Health (Arbeitsmedizin) :Both terms mean the same thing. They refer to the medical aspects covered by an occupational physician (Betriebsärzt:in) (e.g., preventive care or advice on ergonomics).
  • Occupational Safety (Arbeitssicherheit) FaSi, and SiFa:This is the technical side of occupational safety. It's about preventing accidents and hazards in the workplace. FaSi and SiFa are two abbreviations for the same job: occupational safety specialist. They advise you on all technical and organizational safety issues.

Occupational health and safety in Germany is governed by a strict set of rules designed to ensure that every team works safely. The two most important pillars you need to know about are:

  • ASiG (Occupational Safety Act):This law is your "basic law" in occupational safety. It requires every company —regardless of size— to appoint experts (occupational physician (Betriebsärzt:in) and occupational safety specialist (Fachkraft für Arbeitssicherheit) for consultation.
  • DGUV Regulation 2:While the law regulates the "what," this accident insurance regulation clarifies the "how much." It calculates how many hours these experts must support you per year based on your number of employees and industry. This is called basic OHS supervision (Grundbetreuung).

Compliance with these requirements is checked at random by the employers' liability insurance associations (e.g., VBG) or the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is a company support service that helps employees cope with work-related and personal stress. As an EAP for companies, we provide structured, professional, and confidential support to promote mental health. Use of the program is voluntary, confidential, and independent of the employer.

Our EAP provides support for a wide range of issues that can affect health, well-being, and everyday working life. These include stress, overload, burnout, anxiety, sleep problems, psychosomatic complaints, personal worries, career or leadership issues, and topics related to mental and physical health.

Yes, confidentiality is the basis of the EAP. Employers cannot view the content of conversations, appointments, or personal information. Companies only receive anonymized, aggregated evaluations that do not allow conclusions to be drawn about individual persons.

The EAP is open to all employees of the company. Depending on the structure, managers or specific target groups may also be included. Use of the program is voluntary at all times and does not require approval from supervisors.

Employees can book appointments at short notice and usually gain access to professional counseling within a short period of time. The goal of the EAP is to provide fast, low-threshold support without long waiting times.

Yes. ginione meets the highest data protection and security requirements. The software is GDPR-compliant, uses secure data transmission, a strict role and rights concept, and certified infrastructure to protect sensitive information.

Our EAP is suitable for companies that want to offer their employees low-threshold, professional support and promote mental health in the long term, regardless of industry or company size.
