According to the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE), one in three women in the EU have experienced violence. This has significant consequences in the workplace, affecting women's safety, wellbeing, participation in the labour market, productivity and economic independence.

To raise awareness of this issue, EIGE is launching a travelling poster exhibition entitled Violence against women as a workplace issue at its Gender Equality Forum, taking place in Brussels and online on 17 November.

Linked to the EU Gender-based Violence Survey, the exhibition aims to stimulate dialogue among policymakers, social partners and practitioners on effective measures to prevent and address violence against women in the workplace.

Following its launch, the exhibition will travel to the EPSU Executive Committee meeting on 24-25 November.

Long working hours, tight deadlines and job insecurity are just some of the challenges facing workers in the audiovisual sector.

A new OSHwiki article explores how demanding working conditions in film, television, radio and digital media can affect workers’ mental health and well-being.

Freelance contracts, irregular schedules and intense competition can increase stress and make it difficult to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Bullying, harassment and a lack of support can add to these pressures.

The article also highlights practical measures to prevent and manage psychosocial risks. These include better workload planning, stronger support from managers and safer, more inclusive working environments.

New Online interactive Risk Assessment (OiRA) tools are now available to help businesses and healthcare organisations identify occupational risks and improve workplace safety and health. 

In Lithuania, six new tools developed by the State Labour Inspectorate target healthcare professionals, including general practitioners, internists, nurses, radiologists, dentists and surgeons. They support risk assessment in different medical settings, helping to identify workplace hazards and plan appropriate preventive measures. 

Meanwhile, Belgium has introduced a new generic OiRA tool, available in French and Dutch. Developed by the FPS Employment, Labour and Social Dialogue, it helps businesses across different sectors assess occupational risks and strengthen prevention. 

Free and easy to use, these latest additions expand the OiRA offer, making workplace risk assessment more accessible and supporting safer and healthier working environments.
