Europe against noise
The European Week for Safety and Health at Work will be focusing this year on noise problems in the workplace. The ”?Stop That Noise' campaign will take place from the 24th through the 28th of October.
Around one third of employees in Europe are exposed to potentially dangerous levels of noise for at least a quarter of their time at work, according to the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work, the sponsor of the campaign.
The European Week for Safety and Health at Work will be marked by local events all around Europe.
