The 13th European Work Hazards Conference will be held in Bologna, Italy from 4-6th October 2013.
Bringing together workplace health and safety representatives and activists from across Europe together with
occupational health and safety specialists and academics, this 13th biennial conference aims to:
-Work for equality of health and safety prevention and protection across Europe;
-Give workers and professionals new instruments and tools to make real risk assessments in all workplaces;
-Give workers and professionals new solutions (technical and organisational) to assure healthy workplaces;
-Build support for the role of trade unions and their representatives on health and safety issues;
-Extend the EWHN to new EU member Countries and all European Countries;
-Provide a platform for the development of national Work Hazards Networks across Europe;
-Continue to develop close links with H&S activists in other regions of the world.
