European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA)

European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA) works to make European workplaces safer, healthier and more productive – for the benefit of businesses, employees and governments. The agency promotes a culture of risk prevention to improve working conditions in Europe.

What EU-OSHA does

  • Anticipating change: Foresight projects highlight and study new and emerging OSH risks
  • Facts and figures: gathering and disseminating information through the ESENER enterprise survey and OSH overviews on specific topics to identify priorities
  • Tools for good OSH management: Online interactive Risk Assessment (OiRA) for small and medium-sized enterprises
  • Raising awareness: through 2-year Healthy Workplaces Campaigns across Europe and NAPO films on workplace safety and health
  • Networking knowledge: OSHwiki online encyclopaedia of accurate and reliable OSH information
  • Strategic networking: partnerships with governments, employers’ and workers’ organisations
