A new wiki-style website for health and safety practitioners from around the world has just been launched by the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA).
OSHwiki will allow users to create, collaborate and share knowledge on occupational safety and health (OSH) in all languages.
A statement released by EU-OSHA says the new site is, “… a new way to network online with the OSH community, aiming to support government, industry and employee organisations in ensuring safe and healthy workplaces.”
Dr Christa Sedlatschek, Director of EU-OSHA is calling on OSH professionals to become part of OSHwiki and add to the body of OSH knowledge already available on the platform.
” OSHwiki allows experts to share their work with each other in one easy and convenient place, they can gain recognition from the global OSH community for their expertise, and benefit from having their work peer-reviewed by a wider audience, ” Dr Sedlatschek said.
. Contributors include many national organisations for occupational safety and health as well as leading research institutes. With nearly 300 articles already uploaded by OSH experts, topics found on the platform cover areas such as OSH management and organisation, dangerous substances, ergonomics, psychosocial issues and groups at risk. As a one-stop shop for OSH content, OSHwiki aims to be the go-to resource on health and safety for the OSH community and beyond.
