  • 1993

    Founding

    The year it all began. Under the name “SIGURNOST,” we were founded with the mission to advance the field of occupational health and safety in Montenegro.

    In a period when these services were still in their infancy, we laid the foundations of a professional approach, relying on knowledge, responsibility, and dedication to our work.

  • 2002

    Turning Point

    After ten years of operation, in 2002, a key organizational transformation and an official name change to Institut SIGURNOST took place.

    This step marked the transition to a higher phase of development, expansion of activities, and strengthening of professional capacities, thereby positioning the Institute as a leader in its field.

  • 2018

    New Laboratory

    This year was marked by the relocation to a modern facility in City Kvart and the key expansion of the accredited laboratory for testing physico-chemical hazards.

    Equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and new methods, we made a significant step forward in the field of testing working and living environment conditions.

    Generational Transition

    Three decades after its founding, the year 2022 brings another historic change – the transition from the founders to a new, second generation of professional management.
