Summary - Education – evidence from the European Survey of Enterprises on New and Emerging Risks (ESENER)
Keywords:A study by the European Survey of Enterprises on New and Emerging Risks and a literature review of occupational safety and health (OSH) management in Europe’s education sector has revealed that OSH risks facing this sector are typically psychosocial and related to musculoskeletal disorders.
The sector can benefit from stronger OSH management response and increased level of risk awareness as well as employee involvement, staff training and appointment of OSH representatives.
The report also presents a series of sector-specific policy pointers for Member States and relevant stakeholders.
