July 18, 2005—The US National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), and the Bilbao-based European Agency for Safety and Health at Work have launched a new joint Web site covering occupational safety and health issues.
The site follows the structure and presentation of the European Agency’s Web site network and represents a significant contribution to the creation of a global portal to workplace safety and health information. As well as linking directly to European Union (EU) information, the site is a rich source of occupational safety and health information in the US.
The common Web site will provide the occupational safety and health community with improved access and sharing of the vast pool of European and American OSH expertise and research. The Agency’s online network already includes health and safety organizations from Australia, Canada, the US, and Japan.
