The webinar aimed to share knowledge and the EU best practice, as well as EU-OSHA’s publication Teleworking during the COVID-19 pandemic: risks and prevention strategies on the main drivers of teleworking and the associated OSH risks, beneÕts and challenges arising for workers and organisations during the pandemic.

Within the context of the EC funded IPA Action 2020-2022, EU-OSHA supports IPA beneficiaries in mirroring the Healthy Workplaces Campaign 2020-2022 “Lighten the Load” at national level to raise awareness of Occupational Safety and Health and of the EU-OSHA role.

EU OSHA translated the Healthy Workplaces Campaign materials (guides, leaflets, flyers and posters) to the beneficiaries' languages and provided them with printouts for national distribution to social partners, OSH stakeholders and the public.
