The European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA) is a decentralised agency of the European Union with the task of collecting, analysing and disseminating relevant information that can serve the needs of people involved in safety and health at work. Set up in 1994 by Council Regulation (EC) No 2062/94 of 18 July 1994,〔(list of EU-OSHA Founding Regulations )〕〔(Council Regulation (EC) No 2062/94 of 18 July 1994 establishing a European Agency for Safety and Health at Work )〕 EU-OSHA is based in Bilbao, Spain, where it has a staff〔(list of the current staff of the EU-OSHA )〕 of occupational safety and health, communication and administrative specialists. Dr Christa Sedlatschek is the current Director of EU-OSHA,〔(Short profile of Dr Christa Sedlatschek at EU-OSHA's website )〕 following on from Dr Jukka Takala in September 2011. EU-OSHA collects, analyses and disseminates information related to occupational safety and health across the EU and contributes to an evidence base which policymakers can use to establish future policies regarding occupational safety and health. EU-OSHA publishes a monthly newsletter, OSHmail, which deals with occupational health and safety topics, and provides in-depth publications,〔(Publications section of the EU-OSHA )〕 such as detailed reports, regarding occupational safety and health information. EU-OSHA works through diverse networks spanning the EU, with its main activities covering three distinct areas: analysis and research, prevention, and campaigning and awareness raising. EU-OSHA was given an important role in the European strategy on Health and Safety at Work (2007–12)〔(EU Strategy on Safety and Health at Work )〕 and this was reflected in the EU-OSHA Strategy〔(EU-OSHA Strategy 2009-13, replacing the multi-annual work programme 2005-2008. )〕 and Annual Management Plan.〔(2013 Annual Management Plan & Work Programme of EU-OSHA )〕 == Networks == EU-OSHA works in partnership with a wide range of organisations. The Directorate-General Employment, Social Affairs & Inclusion is its reference at the European Commission. At a national level, EU-OSHA is represented by a network of "focal points"〔(EU-OSHA national focal points network web section )〕 in over 30 countries across Europe. Focal points are usually the primary safety and health organisation of a particular country. Each focal point operates a tripartite national network to ensure that information on safety and health at work can be effectively collected and disseminated. EU-OSHA emphasises the importance of a tripartite approach, whereby EU-OSHA works in partnership with governments, employers and workers' representatives. This tripartite structure (Governing Board〔(Composition of the current Governing Board of the EU-OSHA )〕) is key to the way EU-OSHA carries out its campaigns. Through its campaigns EU-OSHA also works with companies and associations in the public and private sector, and with the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN), a business support network that aims to help small businesses in the European marketplace. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「European Agency for Safety and Health at Work」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
