Fraternidad-Muprespa inaugurates the exhibition of 20th century prevention posters in Salamanca
Fraternidad-Muprespa continues to transmit the principles of occupational risk prevention through the exhibition of Spanish posters from the 20th century, belonging to the Vecca&Mugo collection, and which has already been present in 24 locations. Now it is installed in Salamanca, where the exhibition can be seen until next February 7 at the headquarters of the Provincial Directorate of the INSS and Treasury of the city (Edificio Norte, Paseo de Canalejas, 129).
Encarnación Pérez, subdelegate of the Government in Salamanca, has inaugurated the exhibition highlighting the importance that the Spanish Constitution gives to the right to occupational health and safety of workers, as stated in article 40 of the Magna Carta. Pérez has highlighted that "in the 20th century the first law on work accidents appeared, also the interesting Law of the Chair, which demonstrates the progression in this sense. Furthermore, we are in a city that has dedicated itself to the precept of safety and risk prevention through its University, in which a master's degree on occupational risks is taught. The issue is of concern and the challenge must be to achieve zero accidents," he declared.
The event was also attended by Cristina Prieto, provincial director of the TGSS and INSS of Salamanca, and the Northwest territorial director of the Mutua, Jacobo Baró, who stated that “preventive practices represent a democratic advance in which we have to insist and we hope to continue in this line until we reach the goal which is zero accidents.”
Miguel Ángel Quesada, director of the Communication and IR department, has taken a guided tour of the exhibition.
The theme of the posters, safety at work, risk prevention and occupational health, allows us to see the evolution of these concepts during the last century, when these works constituted an important means of training and information. Fraternidad-Muprespa has 5,300 associated companies in Salamanca and protects more than 15,200 protected workers.
