Occupational Health and Safety at ETUCE
The safety and health of teachers is a priority of ETUCE. On this page you will find news and information about ongoing projects. Moreover you will find information and publications concerning former projects.
ETUCE believes a school should be a safe, healthy and propitious place for teaching and learning. Schools are the workplace of teachers, but first and foremost they are educational institutions for young students. Occupational health and safety problems can thus be harmful not only for the workforce (teachers and other staff in education), but can indirectly harm the pupils and put at risk the quality and efficiency of the education provided.
Through its projects, ETUCE seeks to raise awareness, increase knowledge and facilitate exchange of experience and good practices on teachers' safety and health issues among its member organisations.
So far the ETUCE projects have focused on the issues of Work-Related Stress, and Harassment and Violence at work, seeking to implement the European Social Partners' Framework Agreements on these issues.
HEALTHY WORKPLACES
GOOD FOR YOU. GOOD FOR BUSINESS.
ETUCE is an official partner of:
