EU OSHA Strategy 2009-13

The EU OSHA Strategy 2009 - 13 replaces the multi-annual work programme 2005-2008.

 

EU-OSHA’s contribution to making Europe’s workplaces safer, healthier and more productive is therefore the promotion of a preventive OSH culture. EU-OSHA will promote this culture via the collection, analysis and dissemination of information, which is useful for people involved in safety and health at work. 

The strategic goals for 2009-2013 are:

  • To raise awareness of occupational safety and health risks and their prevention
  • To identify good practice in occupational safety and health and facilitate its exchange
  • To anticipate new and emerging risks in order to facilitate preventive action
  • To promote Member State cooperation on information sharing and research
  • To promote networking to make the best use of occupational safety and health resources in Europe and beyond
  • To make EU-OSHA a leading exemplar in social and environmental responsibility.

The European Network of Safety and Health Professional Organisations (ENSHPO) launched its new European Certification Standard. EurOSHM (European Occupational Safety and Health Manager) is a voluntary European certification standard for occupational safety and health. It helps to verify the competence of professionals and is particularly relevant for people with professional remits across several European countries.
