As one of Europe’s busiest convention centres, Amsterdam RAI hosts around 600 exhibitions, conferences and (larger and smaller) events a year. The RAI is a non-stop business during the exhibition season, with a wide range of (international) people and equipment crossing paths in quick succession.
The logistics and working methods related to the set-up and breakdown of stands are especially dynamic. It is vital that all safety regulations are observed to prevent accidents and incidents. Standbuilders and suppliers have to find their way in a complex working environment during set-up and breakdown together with organisers, exhibitors and RAI employees.
Amsterdam RAI complies with Dutch laws and regulations, and accepts responsibility by means of clear and carefully considered rules that are understandable and attainable for all. The goal is to create a ‘safe and hospitable RAI’ where all target groups can carry out their work safely and responsibly. In addition, the RAI aims to take into account changing perceptions regarding safety.
