World Day for Safety and Health at Work

Mental health is also an essential part of workplace safety. Today, we face new psychosocial challenges that are part of everyday working life:

• Constant connectivity
• Excessive workloads
• Emotional exhaustion
• Hybrid and remote working
• Workplace relationships
• Uncertainty and change

What can we do?

• Talk: Share how we feel.
• Listen: Show empathy and avoid judging others.
• Support: Be there for our colleagues.
• Prevent: Manage psychosocial risks.
• Care: Look after our own mental health and that of others.

Looking after emotional well-being helps prevent risks and build safe, healthy and productive working environments.
