The World Day of Safety and Health at Work

The World Day of Safety and Health at Work is celebrated every April 28 in order to promote and raise awareness of the importance of preventing injuries and accidents at work, but also to reduce the occurrence of diseases caused by risks in the workplace. Any workplace accident, whether it is an injury, illness or fatal outcome, is unacceptable. By raising awareness of the importance of health and safety at work, employers implement an effective approach to this topic and in this way contribute to saving the lives of their workers, and behave in a socially responsible and conscientious manner towards their employees. It is very important that workers also adopt this approach and demand that they be adequately protected at their workplace.

On the occasion of the World Day of Safety and Health at Work, we point out once again the need and possibilities of effective cooperation between employers, workers and governments in order to implement safety and health measures at work in the best way, which can save millions of lives around the world, and show that effective cooperation between social partners is key in the prevention of accidents at work and occupational diseases.
