European Healthy Workplaces Campaign 2008-2009

European Healthy Workplaces Campaign 2008-2009

Find out about the European Campaign for Safety and Health at Work 2008-2009, which focused on risk assessment.

Focus on Risk Assessment

This campaign is aimed at employers, workers and safety representatives to promote the benefits of completing and implementing a risk assessment.

The two-year campaign aimed to improve understanding of the process, to show that risk assessment does not need to be complicated, bureaucratic or a task only for experts.

Healthy Workplaces - Good for You, Good for Business

The Healthy Workplaces campaign also aimed to raise awareness, provide information and practical advice, encourage activities that have a positive impact in the workplace, and identify and recognise good practice.

You can download free Campaign Action Packs, with guidance, leaflets and factsheets - details are available in this section - or access an online Risk Assessment Tools Database.

The Health and Safety Executive launched the two-year campaign in the UK on Tuesday 24 June 2008.

European Week for Safety and Health at Work is in October each year and activities during the weeks in 2008 and 2009 focused on the risk assessment campaign theme.
