Safety awareness 02.05.2006

Safety awareness

A food distribution company planned their campaign with ‘military precision’ and events included a suggestion scheme, display screen equipment quizzes, a depot fire drill, manual handling training, First-Aid courses, health and safety quizzes, and general awareness raising. As a result, the Week helped to raise the general level of safety awareness and generated a wide range of excellent suggestions for improvement.

"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."
