OSH News

The 2024 Consolidated Annual Activity Report (CAAR) gives an account of the work done by the Agency, the progress towards its strategic objectives and its contribution to EU policy priorities. It also examines the resources used. In 2024, EU-OSHA made use of the available budget (99%) and implemented the foreseen work programme (93%). 

Key highlights of 2024:

• The European Commission’s evaluation of EU-OSHA together with Eurofound, Cedefop and ETF confirmed the Agency’s relevance to EU policy priorities and good performance.
• The fourth European Survey of Enterprises on New and Emerging Risks (ESENER 2024) was finalised, and the results of the Workers’ Exposure Survey (WES) on cancer risk factors were published, providing insightful data on OSH in Europe.
• EU-OSHA supported policy formulation and workplace prevention with its OSH Overviews on health and social care, psychosocial risks and supporting compliance.
• The Healthy Workplaces Campaign “Safe and Healthy Work in the Digital Age” continued, with 90 campaign partners, Focal Points and over 30 media partners contributing to its success.
• A new Strategy for the period 2025-2034 was adopted in close cooperation with the Management Board and with the input of the national Focal Points. This will provide a strong basis for EU-OSHA’s work over the next ten years and prepares it to contribute to EU priorities.
