"I voted in favour of this report because the right to health is a fundamental right and all workers must enjoy the same legal guarantees and working conditions which protect their health, safety and dignity at work. We should be aware that technological development and evolving economic and social conditions are constantly changing work places and practices, and rapid political, administrative and technical responses are therefore essential in order to guarantee a high level of health and safety at work. In addition, greater attention should be paid to risk prevention, which is necessary in order to reduce the number of occupational accidents and illnesses. Good management of workers’ health and safety systems has a positive impact at both national and European levels and for specific companies. Thus, the branches of occupational health and safety policies must be harmonised at European and national levels and be comprehensively reflected in other public policies, such as health, employment, industry, the environment, transport, education, energy, regional development, public procurement and the internal market. Gender-mainstreaming should also be implemented in all policy areas in order to better reflect the specific risks faced by female workers. The adoption, planning and implementation of national strategies should take into consideration the specific situation of each Member State, targeting the sectors and companies most affected by occupational accidents."@en1
