In the second part of the course (in Leuven, Belgium), the results from the workplaces are analyzed and feedback is provided. It is also possible to attend only one part of the course. NIVA and Prevent Academy for Working Life jointly organise the course.
Background
The European Commission has published a communication about the new Community strategy on health and safety at work (2007-2012). It is aimed to improve quality and productivity of working life. Health and safety at work is considered as one of the most important aspects of the EU policy on employment and social affairs. The overall objective of the strategy is to reduce by 25 % the total incidence rate of accidents at work per 100 000 workers in the EU 27 during the strategy period.
A better understanding of positive effects of a good working environment would support the implementation of effective health and safety policy at company level. It would complement the set of rules and regulations with a significant parameter that is directly linked to the intrinsic motivation of a company.
