Careers at EU-OSHA are open to nationals of the 27 European Union Member States plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway (parties of the EEA agreement).

EU-OSHA is an equal opportunity employer. We happily welcome applications, employees and trainees without distinction on the grounds of gender, colour, racial, ethnic or social origin, genetic features, language, religion or belief, political or any other opinion, membership of a national minority, property, birth, disability, nationality, age, sexual orientation or gender identity.

This page presents a calendar of events related to occupational safety and health (OSH) in Europe and beyond. The list includes key OSH events organised by EU-OSHA, its stakeholders and its partners, as well as other relevant organisations.

Not everyone can attend our events, so here you will also find links to presentations and summaries of the main points of discussion from some events.

There are different types of guidelines, such as practical guidelines from the European Commission setting out best practice for the prevention of risks, Council Recommendations, European Commission Communications, EU Social partners agreements, and others.
