Approved the new Andalusian Strategy for Safety and Health at Work 2024-2028

The Governing Council of the Regional Government of Andalusia has approved the new Andalusian Occupational Health and Safety Strategy 2024-2028, which aims to become the main planning tool in this region in the development of its occupational risk prevention policies.

Within the strategy there are two large chapters, which cover almost half of its length, dedicated to carrying out a diagnosis of occupational accidents and the occupational health and safety conditions after the actions carried out, as well as a broad analysis of occupational diseases, with special dedication to occupational cancer and silicosis.

With respect to the objectives, a strategic one is set, focused on promoting safe and healthy work environments in Andalusia, promoting a preventive culture and effective management of occupational risks. This strategic principle is intended to be achieved through seven general objectives, among which are the improvement of occupational health and safety conditions, reducing work accidents, and the prevention of occupational diseases.

Facilitating the application of occupational risk prevention in Andalusian SMEs is the third general objective of the strategy, to which is added addressing the challenges derived from new forms of work organization, the digital transition and other emerging risks. The objectives are completed by promoting a preventive culture in Andalusia, as well as improving the functioning of the occupational health and safety system and developing core aspects of occupational risk prevention, such as training, the gender perspective and the adequate treatment of vulnerable groups.
