Posted in on Thu, Feb 2, 2012

From the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work –

The Parliament’s report highlights the need to protect women, young people, ageing and migrant workers in Europe’s workplaces. MSDs and work related stress are pointed out as main areas of concern for European enterprises in relation to OSH.

The report says it is important to help SMEs put in place risk-prevention policies and stresses the positive role of simple, free and targeted initiatives, such as the OiRA and considers employee participation to be a further key factor in successful OSH-related management (ESENER)
