The 89/391/EEC directive stipulates that employers must evaluate risks to the safety and health of workers. The thematic report by Eurogip considers the types of risks to be assessed, the players involved in assessment, formalisation of the assessment, the link between assessment and preventive action plan, the frequency of the procedure, and sanctions for an assessment failing.
2007
On 8 November 2007, the Board of Directors of Eurogip unanimously adopted the strategic guidelines for the standardisation activity of the network of the Occupational Injuries and Diseases Branch of the Social Security system. These guidelines involve, in particular, creating work tools and procedures designed to better choose between and manage the subjects and levels of work performed by the network’s experts, to strengthen monitoring and reporting activity, and to define the conditions and limits of funding for this activity.

2006|Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Spain, Sweden
How to prevent the work-related risks resulting from the abuse of alcohol, drugs or narcotics? This was the central question of the Eurogip Discussions on Friday 20 October, which brought together representatives of the European Commission and of several European countries: Germany, Belgium, Spain, Finland, France, Ireland, Italy, Sweden and Switzerland. Although there is a cruel lack of epidemiological research to establish a link between the use of such substances and occupational injuries, all the participants recognised that the subject was indeed a matter of concern in the countries and the enterprises represented.
