Cooperation Partners:
The Network has established from its beginning partnerships with several organisations among of which two are the most representative.
National Institute for Research and Development in Occupational Safety.
The institute itself has already organised an informal network in the field of prevention of accidents in the working environment and, therefore it was considered an important partner.
Among the members of its network there are:
The Ministry for Labour, Social Solidarity and Family, the Labour Inspection, the Occupational Health Cathedra-Faculty of Medicine/University Carol Davila etc.
Public Health Institute Bucharest-Occupational Health Department.
This institute has shown a special interest over the years for enhancing the Occupational Health statutory regulations with prevention activities and WHP initiatives.
