The European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA) has launched the Healthy Workplaces Campaign 2014 - 2015 "Healthy Workplaces Manage Stress".
The campaign focuses on stress and psychosocial risks. Tackling stress and psychosocial risks creates a healthy working environment, improves worker well-being and business performance. ENETOSH is an official campaign partner now and will focus on the growing problem of stress and psychosocial risks within the learning and working environment of educational institutions.
In addition the network will especially promote resources developed by EU-OSHA that can be used within the field of education and training on occupational safety and health. More information about the campaign on the official website: www.healthy-workplaces.eu

The ENETOSH kickoff happened in October 2005, the project originally was scheduled for a 24 month runtime. Now, end of April 2014, the network is still working successfully and currently consists of 67 members from 28 countries. The database on the web platform www.enetosh.net contains 700 examples of good practice from 41 countries worldwide, the WHO IS WHO area shows contact profiles of 164 experts in education and training on OSH.
After its launch in 2006, the web platform www.enetosh.net immediately showed a very good acceptance. In 2008, the click rates had increased to a peak level and, during the following years, the number of clicks stabilized on a constant level (roundabout 26000 unique visitors per year) - enetosh.net had become a working platform. Taking a look at the numbers of 2013 and the current year 2014, we can see strongly increasing numbers again: From January to April 2014, an average of 30% more unique visitors than in the "peak year" 2008 visited the platform. The number of total visits (which indicates, that people do not only access the platform once, but several times per month) shows increasing rates of nearly 60%, comparing the first three months of 2014 to those of the year 2008.
All these numbers show, that the ENETOSH network and its web platform is well-known and acknowledged among experts in education and training on occupational safety and health all over the world.
More information, e.g. about the ENETOSH Ambassadors, the "Whole School Approach" working group or detailed web statistics, can be found in the multiple areas of this web platform.
