The Estonian Labour Inspectorate and the Estonian Ministry of Social Affairs are organising a joint event on 7-8 November - Senior Labour Inspectors Committee (SLIC) Thematic Day and occupational safety and health (OSH) conference "New Forms of Work and Occupational Safety and Health".

The world of work is changing due to new technologies, it is more project-based and new generations have different expectations and habits. However, even in these new, non-traditional work settings the high European standards for occupational health and safety need to be maintained.

The conference brings together experts, academics, social partners, regulators and enforces to discuss the challenges the new forms of work are bringing for the legislation and the enforcement.

There will be a livestream of the event. Videos related to the event are available below and on our videos page and photos of events can be accessed on our photos page or on our Flickr account.
