The study aims at better understanding the importance of
Occupational Health and Safety (OSH) as a contributing factor to the
economic viability of an organisation and looks into the potential
effects of the proposals currently on the table for reducing
administrative burdens in the field of health and safety at work. It
considers the costs and benefits of compliance with OSH obligations, new
and emerging risks and the need for new prevention measures to address
these.
