Description

In a world marked by uncertainty and crises, how can we adapt and thrive?

EU-OSHA’s Finnish focal point Työterveyslaitos, social partner KT Kunta- ja hyvinvointityönantajat and the Finnish Centre for Occupational Safety Työturvallisuuskeskus have the answer: risk assessments! Next 6 June, they will delve into the strategies for navigating major changes and crises in our working lives.

From the ongoing war in Ukraine, COVID-19, climate change and the global energy crisis, participants will explore how to be prepared. This online event is designed for OSH professionals, managers and communication specialists.

During the activity, participants will learn techniques for preparing workplaces for unforeseen threats, the importance of reviewing lessons learned from previous crises and effectively communicating preparedness to the work community. Throughout the day, speakers will highlight the utmost importance of conducting regular risk assessments.

In line with this, they will showcase EU-OSHA’s Online interactive Risk Assessment (OiRA) tools, with a particular focus on the resources tailored for Finland.
