Factsheet 83 - Goede praktijken bij het voorkomen van risico’s voor jonge werknemers — samenvatting van een rapport
Jongeren lopen om meerdere redenen meer risico op een arbeidsongeval.
Ze missen ervaring, vaardigheden en opleiding, ze zijn minder volwassen en
hebben minder oog voor risico’s. Ook zijn ze zich mogelijk niet bewust van
hun eigen rechten en de verplichtingen van werkgevers op het gebied van
gezondheid en veiligheid. Waarschijnlijk zijn ze terughoudend om problemen
aan te kaarten en willen ze hun nieuwe werkgever graag tevreden houden.
Daarom moeten ze veilige en geschikte functies uitoefenen die passen bij
hun vaardigheden en mentale en fysieke capaciteiten, en goed worden
getraind en begeleid.

In 2009 and 2010, the Agency commissioned an update to its previous research on gender issues at work , which found that inequality both inside and outside the workplace can have an effect on the health and safety of women at work. This summary provides a policy perspective and is meant to contribute to the task outlined by the European strategy on health and safety at work for EU-OSHA’s European Risk Observatory, “examining the specific challenges in terms of health and safety posed by the more extensive integration of women in the labour market”. It provides a statistical overview of the trends in employment and working conditions, hazard exposure and work-related accidents and health problems for women at work. It explores selected issues (combined exposures, occupational cancer, access to rehabilitation, women and informal work, and “emerging” female professions such as home care and domestic work). The research highlights the type of work carried out by women, issues faced by younger and older women, the growth of the service sector, violence and harassment, and increasingly diversified working time patterns as major risk factors.
As part of the European Campaign 2010–11 on Safe Maintenance, EU-OSHA organised the European Good Practice Awards Competition (the tenth such competition), aiming to identify examples of good practice in the management of occupational safety and health during maintenance. The awards recognise organisations that have made an outstanding and innovative contribution to Safe Maintenance. Through the competition EU-OSHA promotes good practice solutions at the workplace and shares information about good practice across Europe. Forty entries from 22 Member States and Turkey were received, including organisations of all sizes and from a wide variety of industrial sectors.
The report presents the prevalence of violence and harassment at work based on international and national statistics, as well as the results of scientific studies on antecedents and consequences of work-related violence. A survey of the Agency's Focal Point network suggest that there is still an insufficient level of awareness and recognition of problems with third-party violence and harassment in many EU Member States, and there is a clear need to promote and disseminate good practice and prevention measures which are sensitive to the national context. Some measures proposed by EU, ILO, WHO and national experts are included in the report.
