European Week 2009
European Week for Safety and Health at Work 2009 (19th - 23rd October)
During the European Week hundreds of Campaign events and activities are taking place all over Europe. These include conferences and exhibitions, training sessions and activities where both large and small companies work together. The common theme linking all these events is promoting the importance of carrying out risk assessment in every workplace.
The success of the Healthy Workplaces Campaign and its European Week is largely due to the support of the EU-OSHA network of focal points in the 27 EU Member States and accession countries and the Campaign’s official Campaign partners.
The contribution of many local and regional initiatives carried out by trade unions, enterprises, NGOs and government administrations also play an important role. All these activities show that workplace accident and illness prevention is a top priority in Europe.
