This is the second of two sessions on this topic, and the first one took place on 13 April 2023 in English, French and Spanish.
People’s values, needs and approaches to work have changed over the past years and especially since the COVID-19 pandemic. It has been found that organizational culture, work-life balance and a good social environment play a much bigger role in individuals’ decision-making when it comes to choosing employment and staying in their jobs. Employers are therefore placing more focus on recruitment and attracting talent as well as developing healthier working environments that promote safety, health and wellbeing (SHW) at work.
The Vision Zero mindset is about the journey towards a prevention culture and a higher prevention-level. It is based on the assumption that all accidents, harm and work-related ill-health are preventable. Well-being at work contributes to productivity, but also to a positive climate that transforms a passive productivity into a creative and proactive world of work, were workers and managers collaborate and take active steps to protect and promote the health, safety and wellbeing of all workers and thus contribute to the sustainability of the workplace and their business operations.
This webinar will present the new Vision Zero Wellbeing Guide and will – by highlighting the experiences of our experts on the panel – underline the importance of promoting wellbeing at work through the development of a prevention culture and through leading by example.
