What is a "flash" inspection?
A "flash" inspection is a pre-announced inspection that focuses on compliance with social legislation and labour regulations.
By announcing these inspections, the inspection services aim to prevent social fraud and encourage companies to comply with the regulations, even at the last minute.
Checklist
The SIRS provides checklists on its website. These lists detail the documents that may be requested during an inspection, so please consult them. This list is not exhaustive, and the social inspector has the right to request any documents he considers relevant for his investigation.
What inspections can you expect?
Social inspectors will check for violations related to undeclared work (NOSS declaration) and illegal employment (single permit, work permit, and employment authorisations), as well as the following:
-
labour regulations, including various working hours and mandatory annexes (such as the psychosocial risks annex);
-
labour contracts and annexes (part-time labour contracts, student contracts, temporary work contracts);
