Occupational Safety and Health Protection

The Occupational Safety and Health department focuses on research, professional activities, and the implementation of solutions in the areas of occupational risk prevention, workplace safety, working conditions, occupational injuries, and employment. It contributes to the development of evidence-based materials to inform decision-making in labor law and social policy.

The department monitors trends in occupational injuries, examines their causes and impacts, and predicts factors that may influence these trends, including economic, social, and societal changes. Based on these analyses, it participates in the creation of tools to support OSH culture and policies in organizations of all sizes. Conducting analyses and forecasting developments in OSH and employment constitutes an integral part of its activities.

Special attention is given to current trends in OSH, particularly the impact of new technologies on working conditions, the emergence of new risks, and the use of modern prevention and training methods. Key research areas include emerging risks, notably psychosocial and technological hazards. Equally important is the promotion of safety awareness across diverse target groups.

The department primarily addresses issues related to occupational injuries, work-related illnesses, psychosocial stress, and technological risks. By integrating research, expert knowledge, and practical support, it provides diverse target groups with comprehensive solutions to ensure safe working conditions that do not compromise health.
