European Week for Safety and Health at Work
Many of the Campaign’s events are focused around the European Weeks for Safety and Health at Work, which take place all over Europe in October 2010 and 2011 (calendar week 43). These include conferences and exhibitions, training sessions and activities where both large and small organisations and companies work together.
The success of the Healthy Workplaces Campaign and its European Week is largely due to the support of the Agency’s network of focal points in the 27 EU Member States and accession countries and that of its 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.
