European Campaign for Safety and Health at Work

This is the second year of a two-year campaign to promote the benefits of completing and implementing a risk assessment.  The campaign is aimed at a wide range of stakeholders, including employers, workers and safety representatives.  Its purpose is to raise awareness, provide information and practical advice.  Also to encourage activities that have a positive impact in the workplace and to identify and recognise good practice.

European Week itself is from 19-25 October 2009.
