The data relating to accidents at work in Italy are encouraging: there has been in fact, in the last ten years, a decrease of the total accidents by about 26%, and in particular those mortal over 37% *.
The situation is different with regard to occupational diseases: the new legislation introduced in the field over the past years and the intensification of prevention activities highlighted the need to pay greater attention to the fundamental causes of risk.
The positive trend on accidents along with the need for a thorough reflection on the prevention of occupational diseases confirm the usefulness of Ambiente Lavoro, a unique initiative in our country that deals in depth, with sensitivity and attention, all the issues related to health and safety on workplaces.
Once again Ambiente Lavoro will complement to the exhibiting area, where the companies will present the latest innovations in products,technologies and services, a conference program without equal, reconfirming itself as an opportunity to spread and entrenchment of culture of safety in Italy.
The combination with SAIE , the main event in Bologna on the world of construction, represents a further important opportunity to address in depth the issues of safety on building sites, where more than 9% * of accidents reported occur, with a high incidence of occupational diseases.
Ambiente Lavoro confirms itself, therefore, as a point of reference and authoritative event for all those who wish to contribute at various levels to the development of workplace safety, a sector of great importance both in terms of productive economic and social nature implications.
