The European Commission adopted an Action Plan on 22 October 2009 intended to reduce businesses’ information obligations. Among the measures proposed under this plan, which is part of the ‘Better regulation’ campaign, is an exemption for certain small businesses from the obligation to draw up a risk assessment.
The Centrale générale de la FGTB, which represents workers within this Belgian trade union confederation, has roundly condemned this proposal. |

Occupational health is in trouble. It is suffering from a range of ailments: a shortage of doctors, a scarcity of resources and training, the devaluation of the job, the transformation of doctors into "advisors" working for employers, the commodification of the sector, etc. On 21 and 22 March, the ETUI and the Dutch trade union confederation FNV held a meeting in Amsterdam bringing together a dozen trade union experts and company doctors.

The European Commission adopted, on 22 October, an Action Programme intended to reduce information obligations on companies. The programme forms part of the Better Regulation campaign. EU directives on health and safety at work are concerned by this programme. For the 1989 framework directive, the Commission is considering a number of proposals: exempting certain small enterprises from the obligation of establishing a risk assessment, reducing workplace inspections and urging Member States to limit the transposition of HSW directives to their minimum obligations.

On 17 December, the European Commission backed away from asking Member States to vote on two proposed derogations on the import and use of asbestos in the EU. The first would have extended the let-out given to the chlorine industry despite the asbestos ban in force in the EU since 2005. Even worse, the second would have allowed asbestos-containing articles produced before 2005 to be reintroduced into the EU. |
