EUROGIP’s work cited by the French Court of Accounts

The French Court of Accounts (Cour des comptes) regularly calls on EUROGIP to provide insights on issues related to the management of occupational accidents and diseases at the international level. In recent months, it has sought EUROGIP’s expertise on the topic of the recognition of occupational diseases.

In October 2025, the French Court of Accounts published an observation report in which it provides an in-depth analysis of how the French system for recognizing occupational diseases operates and makes several recommendations. Drawing on numerous national and European sources of expertise, this report explicitly cites several EUROGIP studies, including:

• Musculoskeletal disorders: how are they recognized as occupational diseases? A study covering ten European countries (2016);

• Establishing the occupational origin of a disease – Focus on the Italian and Danish approaches. The cases of MSDs, cancers and mental disorders (2020);

• Recognition and compensation of work-related mental disorders in Europe (2023).
