Special edition

A label manufacturer produced a special edition of its newsletter ‘MTM News’ which contained a quiz, a health and safety crossword, and much more to promote the week. A poster competition to raise awareness of health and safety amongst local schoolchildren was held with the winners given gift vouchers, and the company made a donation to the school to spend on health and safety. A mock fire test was held and a disaster scenario practised where employees were invited to do their own risk assessments.

"European Weeks have turned into a real trademark. In Austria much is being done. Seventeen labour inspectorates realised projects with partner schools, and the outcomes will be presented in October during a conference in Vienna. We also issued a special ‘Safe Start’ postage stamp on the day of the launch.
I am convinced that this European Week will contribute to a further improvement of health and safety at work, and I wish everyone great success."
