Updated regularly, the Safety Register is an effective prevention and traceability tool, helping to protect people and control risks.The French Construction and Housing Code (Article R.123-51) lays down the provisions governing the keeping of the register. The register facilitates inspections by the authorities and strengthens regulatory compliance.
