Good morning all.
Does anybody have any useful advice relating to health and safety management in the Danish construction arena? Do the Danish OSH Regulations differ greatly from those in place within the UK? What are the greatest barriers you may have come across while working in this field?
Cheers for now.

You can't buy Marmite in Denmark, it's bannedbecause it has vitamin supplements. That seems like a pretty big barrier.

I am over there tomorrow for a start of an engineering project. I will see what I can find out.

Apart from the Marmite issue... this is an old HSE CRR that covers Danish H&S systems but it is from 1999 so might not be of much use...

This might be better..

From my experience they have always been very good at general occupational health - checks etc...
