- Através das suas 36 000 entrevistas, o inquérito ESENER recolheu uma quantidade enorme de dados comparáveis sobre a forma como a saúde e segurança são geridas nos locais de trabalho europeus. Além das principais conclusões, publicadas em 2010, este recurso permite realizar análises estatísticas aprofundadas, bem como identificar questões subjacentes. Para este efeito, foram realizados quatro projetos de análise secundários que exploram os dados ESENER em maior detalhe, cujos resultados serão apresentados no presente resumo. Os quatro relatórios centram-se no seguinte: Gestão da segurança e saúde no trabalho; Representação e consulta dos trabalhadores sobre segurança e saúde; Fatores associados à gestão eficaz dos riscos psicossociais; Gestão dos riscos psicossociais— forças impulsionadoras, obstáculos, necessidades e medidas tomadas

- In 2009, EU-OSHA carried out the first Europe-wide establishment survey on health and safety at the workplace, the European Survey of Enterprises on New and Emerging Risks (ESENER). Following on from the initial analysis presented in the descriptive overview report in 2010, four secondary analysis projects have been carried out in 2011. This report focuses on workers' participation in health and safety management. It highlights how participation varies across Europe and examines the relationship between worker representation and effective management of workplace risks.

- Employees often have a detailed knowledge of their work and how it can be made safer. This guide shows how workers can use this knowledge to actively liaise with managers to improve workplace safety and health. It outlines the respective roles, responsibilities and legal duties of workers, their representatives and employers. It gives concrete examples of steps that all parties can take to meaningfully improve occupational safety and health. This guide also contains a useful ‘checklist’ that workers and their representatives can work through to ensure that they are doing their utmost to reduce risks.

- One conclusion from the EU-OSHA economic incentives project is that incentives schemes should not only reward past results of good OSH management (such as accident numbers in experience rating), but should also reward specific prevention efforts that aim to reduce future accidents and ill-health. Experts from the economic incentives project therefore suggested the development of compilations of innovative and evidence-based preventive solutions, starting with the three sectors construction, health care and HORECA (hotels, restaurants, catering). The preventive measures from these compilations are worth promoting in their own right, as well as being applied in economic incentives schemes. These preventive solutions can be used as a basis for incentive-providing organisations to develop their own incentive scheme, adapted to the specific situation in their sector and country.

- Occupational safety and health culture, or more briefly 'OSH culture', can be seen as a concept for exploring how informal organisational aspects influence OSH in a positive or negative way. The aim is to convey up-to-date information on this complex topic in a straightforward, condensed way, trying to build a bridge between research and practice. The main approaches and methods that exist to assess the safety culture in an organisation are presented and discussed. This review gives an overview and selection of useful tools and techniques from the EU domain and abroad.

- Mental health promotion (MHP) includes all the actions that contribute to good mental health. Its primary aim is to focus on what maintains and improves our mental wellbeing. It is important to highlight that optimally effective MHP should include a combination of both risk management and health promotion. In this good practice report you can find information on how to integrate MHP into a comprehensive approach to enhancing and promoting the health, safety and wellbeing of employees at work. Several of the case studies are particularly interesting because of their innovative and creative approaches.
