Risk assessment is the basis for successful health and safety management, and the key to reducing work-related accidents and occupational diseases. If implemented well, it can improve not only workplace safety and health, but business performance in general. The report supports the European ‘healthy workplaces’ campaign 2008/09 on risk assessment by providing information on successful interventions in the workplace to eliminate or substantially reduce risks. The report is aimed at those who are responsible for carrying out risk assessments in the workplace and for making decisions on preventive measures.
