During this meeting, the future strategy of ENETOSH was discussed, based on a SWOT analysis and on the results of a survey from the 16th ENETOSH Network Meeting that took place subsequent to the XX World Congress in Frankfurt. The SWOT analysis was carried out upon request of the International Labour Organization (ILO) within the scope of their new “Knowledge for Prevention Initiative” (KPI). The discussion led to a Strategic Framework paper that will be finalized by end of January 2015.




The future strategy of the ENETOSH network will be presented on this website soon.
