Organization OeSD receives the Badge of Quality (BGF) certification
In a significant recognition of its commitment to workplace health management and promotion, Austrian Website GmbH has been honoured with the BGF Quality Seal by the Austrian Network for Occupational Health Promotion. This coveted award is issued in cooperation with the Federal Ministry of Health and serves as a testament to the company's outstanding efforts in this area.
The BGF Quality Seal, which stands for "Betriebliche Gesundheitsförderung," or Workplace Health Promotion, is not a promotional award or advertisement, but a quality award that ensures the strict quality criteria of the BGF network are met. The seal is given to businesses that have successfully integrated occupational health promotion into their daily operations.
Mag. Helmut Lackner, the CEO of Austrian Website GmbH, also serves as the CFO of the company. Under his leadership, the company has demonstrated sustained commitment to occupational health promotion, as evidenced by the repeated awarding of the BGF Quality Seal.
To be eligible for the BGF Quality Seal, companies must integrate health promotion into their organisational culture and daily business processes. They must also implement measures that promote physical and mental health at work, such as ergonomics, stress management, and healthy lifestyle support. Active employee participation in health promotion activities is crucial, as is the continuous evaluation and improvement of these measures. Compliance with national occupational health and safety regulations, alongside voluntary health promotion efforts, is also essential.
The formal application and assessment process for the BGF Quality Seal involve documentation and verification of these points by auditors from the Austrian Health Insurance Fund (ÖGK). For comprehensive and precise criteria, one would usually refer directly to the guidelines published by the ÖGK or the official BGF program documentation.
The BGF Quality Seal is valid for a period of three years, providing a benchmark for continuous improvement in workplace health promotion initiatives. With this prestigious recognition, Austrian Website GmbH joins the ranks of other esteemed companies that have demonstrated their commitment to the well-being of their employees.
Science plays a crucial role in the continuous improvement of workplace health promotion initiatives, as evidenced by the integration of ergonomics, stress management, and healthy lifestyle support in the BGF Quality Seal criteria. Furthermore, the commitment of businesses like Austrian Website GmbH to this standard sets an example in the intersection of health-and-wellness and finance, demonstrating the potential benefits for both employee well-being and business success.
