The Danish Working Environment Authority has opened its doors to municipalities and regions that want to strengthen the working environment – and improved indoor climate is an obvious initiative. With the Fund for Working Environment Initiatives in Municipalities and Regions, you can apply for support for specific initiatives that benefit employees and citizens.
And yes – you can apply for funding for SKYEN , ÅBN's documented solution for better indoor climate, well-being and fewer sick days.
Who can apply for the occupational health and safety fund?
Applicants to the pool are legal entities in Denmark's 98 municipalities and 5 regions. This applies to all workplaces in municipal and regional administration branches – from nursing homes and daycare centers to schools and administrative centers.
Municipalities and regions can also apply jointly if they collaborate on a project – but one party must be the main applicant and grant holder.
Note: Municipal companies are not included in the pool.
What can support be sought for?
The pool for working environment covers a wide range of areas where development and innovation are needed:
-
Introductory course for new graduates and new employees
-
Interventions for seniors so they can stay longer in the labor market
-
Managers' psychological working environment , e.g. through well-being and management development
-
Sickness absence prevention , both physical and mental
-
Civic-friendly career paths that strengthen connections and development opportunities
-
Flexible work organization , across professional groups
-
Prevention of wear and tear and accidents , physical and mental
Use the working environment fund to purchase SKYEN from ÅBN
SKYEN is ÅBN's visual indoor climate sensor that helps workplaces create a healthier indoor climate through technology and behavior. SKYEN measures:
-
CO₂ level
-
Temperature and humidity
-
Light and noise
-
-
TVOC (chemical pollution)
The sensor provides real-time feedback in the room and visualizes the air quality with colors.
The result? Employees act quickly, ventilate and create a better working environment – and better well-being.
You can apply for support for the purchase of SKYEN in the pool , for example in the following areas of focus:
- Prevention of physical and mental exhaustion
- Reduction of sick leave
📉 In fact, research shows that improved indoor climate can reduce sick leave by up to 58% and increase cognitive performance by 61% .
At ÅBN you get a solution with a 7-year precision guarantee and documentation on improving the indoor climate.
We work strategically with your employees with a process that helps before, during and after implementation. We help with, among other things:
- Onboarding employees to a new indoor climate culture
- Installing devices
- Project management
- Reporting after 3 months of follow-up.
