Previous ETUCE Projects:
2010-2011
This project aims to continue the work ETUCE has accomplished on work-related stress (WRS) and to complete the information ETUCE has gathered in previous surveys among its member unions. With this new WRS project ETUCE wishes to gather detailed facts on teachers' WRS to obtain a more precise overview of how this affects teachers in the EU.
2009-2010
Drawing on the experience from the first ETUCE project concerning violence and harassment in schools, it is clear that cyber-bullying /-harassment has developed into a highly discussed topic at schools because it affects teachers at their workplace and their working conditions in a most dangerous way.Therefore ETUCE has initiated a project focusing on this topic.
2009
The three main focus areas of this second project on teachers' work-related stress were to work further on risk assessment, the inclusion of WRS in collective agreements and the procedures and strategies that teacher unions should follow while dealing with and preventing WRS at school level.
2008
This first ETUCE project on violence in schools focused on raising awareness to all ETUCE member organisations regarding violence at school which not only endangers pupils but all those working in the education system.
2007
This first ETUCE project on teachers' work-related stress aimed to improve expertise and to exchange information and best practices on teachers’ work-related stress, as well as to support teacher unions on the implementation of the European Framework Agreement on work-related stress.
ETUCE Projects on Teachers' Occupational Safety and Health
The ETUCE has so far initiated the following projects on the topic of teachers' occupational safety and health. The projects have focussed on the issues of Work-related Stress, and Harassment and Violence at work, seeking to implement the European Social Partners' Framework Agreements on the same issues.
Below you find links to the pages concerning each project, containing all relevant information.
These projects were established with funding from the European Commission.
