Fraternidad-Muprespa inaugurates the exhibition of 20th century prevention posters in Salamanca
Fraternidad-Muprespa sigue transmitiendo los principios de la prevención de riesgos laborales a través de la exposición de carteles españoles del siglo XX, pertenecientes a la colección Vecca&Mugo, y que ha estado ya presente en 24 emplazamientos. 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).
Encarnacion Perez, 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 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, where 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.
They were also present at the event Cristina Prieto, provincial director of the TGSS and INSS of Salamanca, and the Northwest territorial director of the Mutua,Jacobo Baro, who stated that “preventive practices represent a democratic advance on which we have to insist and we hope to continue along this line until we reach the goal of zero accidents.”
Miguel Angel Quesada, director of the Communication and IR department, took 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.
