Exposure to chemicals, heavy machinery and repetitive tasks are only a few of the risks workers are exposed to in the leather and tanning industry. 

Five OiRA tools support companies in the sector - one at the European level and four tailored to national contexts in Portugal, Bulgaria, and Spain (2).

These tools equip employers with the knowledge to recognise hazards, manage risks, and take proactive steps toward safer workplaces.
