ENETOSH will support the Healthy Workplaces for all Ages Campaign 2016 - 2017 of EU OSHA to raise the awareness around the importance of safe and healthy work at any age.
In April 2016, EU-OSHA, together with the European Commission and the Netherlands’ EU Council Presidency, launched its 2016-17 campaign, Healthy Workplaces for All Ages. This new campaign focuses on sustainable work and healthy ageing from the beginning of working life and highlights the importance of risk prevention throughout a person’s career. Based on the European Parliament project ‘Safer and healthier work at any age’ conducted by EU-OSHA, the campaign highlights the benefits of good occupational safety and health for workers, companies and society as a whole.
ENETOSH will especially promote the life-course approach of the campaign. By doing this, the network will stress the importance of learning and re-learning within an ageing society. In addition the network will raise the question about the different prerequisites for a good learning and working environment at different ages.

The European Network Education and Training in Occupational Safety and Health (ENETOSH) is supporting the Autoridade para as Condições do Trabalho (ACT) in the framework of the MIND SAFETY – SAFETY MATTERS! ERASMUS+ project. This project aims to establish an interface between teacher education, professional training and learning contexts in occupational safety and health. It will help to improve and innovate methods of teaching safety and health issues in the classroom, to motivate and prepare young people to work in safe conditions, and to be responsible citizens after leaving school.
The project will also promote teachers’ active involvement and active participation in their own training, to test, experiment, develop and implement methodologies and tools in school, enhancing the quality and relevance of the learning process, innovating practices for improving teaching competences and abilities in order to deliver occupational safety and health issues.
Practical outcomes of the project, which is a cooperation of Autoridade para as Condições do Trabalho (PT), Universidade de Aveiro (PT), AFTEBI - Associação para a Formação Tecnológica e Profissional da Beira Interior (PT), The National Research and Development Institute of Occupational Safety (INCDPM)(ROM), Výzkumný ústav bezpecnosti práce Praha (CZ), Technische Universiteit Delft (NL) and Universitat de Girona (ESP), will be an OSH Teacher Education Reference Guide, a Practical Guide for teachers (OSH! What a bright idea!) and a booklet for students.

In October 2005, ENETOSH was launched at the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA) in Bilbao. On the occasion of its 10th Anniversary, ENETOSH returned to Bilbao. The highlight of the 2015 ENETOSH events in Bilbao was the Joint Workshop on Mainstreaming OSH into Education: Sharing Knowledge for Global Prevention on 15 – 16 October. The workshop was organised by a team of colleagues from ENETOSH, EU-OSHA, ILO, ISSA and NIOSH. 45 participants from four continents attended the event in Bilbao.
First results from this workshop are now available on this website. In addition you will find the video “10 Years of ENETOSH”, all presentations and a picture gallery here.
