Workplace

Puglia Region supports prevention in the workplace by adopting measures to promote occupational safety and health. These are distinct but complementary issues that involve employers and employees, the trade union organisations and the regional authorities. 
Promoting health in the workplace
Ever more businesses are committed to creating a working environment that promotes the physical and mental well-being of employees by encouraging physical activity and the prevention of chronic diseases. In short, by promoting health. Find out more on the dedicated page.
Targeted plans for safety in the workplace 
Occupational injuries and accidents can have serious consequences for both employees and employers. Adequate training, implementation and compliance with targeted safety plans are essential for prevention purposes. 
Occupational diseases
Most of the diseases affecting the workplace involve the musculoskeletal system and are caused by inadequate posture, repetitive movements of the upper limbs and overloading the spine. Moreover, workers are increasingly affected by work-related stress syndrome due to high production rates. Last but not least, some of the occupational diseases that cause the most concern are neoplasms due to exposure to carcinogens.
