European Week for Safety and Health at Work 2025

This week (20–26 October) marks the European Week for Safety and Health at Work 2025 – an annual highlight of the EU-OSHA Healthy Workplaces Campaign.

This year’s theme focuses on safe and healthy digital workplaces, reflecting the growing role of digital technologies in how we work. According to EU-OSHA’s recent OSH Pulse survey, 32% of workers now use advanced digital tools such as AI software or wearable devices making digitalisation a key topic for workplace safety and health.

Throughout the week, EU-OSHA, national focal points and campaign partners across Europe are raising awareness of the opportunities and challenges of digitalisation, sharing practical tools, knowledge and examples of good practice.
There are plenty of ways to get involved:

    • Attend events, webinars or training sessions organised across Europe
    • Host your own awareness activity or share resources in your workplace
    • Follow the campaign online using #EUhealthyworkplaces

Find out more and get involved via the Healthy Workplaces Campaign website.
Let’s use this week as a reminder of the importance of active, participative safety and health management – both online and on site.
