The opening workshop of the ‘Safety Reps’ project will take place at ETUC headquarters and will bring together EU national health & safety experts to exchange information on H&S standards and norms in their country. The aim is to develop an educational tool to foster greater participation of workers in H&S issues by giving access to data related to health & safety at work and working conditions in the EU 27 countries. This tool will be presented at the closing conference due to take place in Budapest in April 2013.
