Research reports
Aimed at small and medium sized enterprises (SME's) and
organised to share information on developments in Europe of tools
for assessment and control. The participants of several institutes
involved in this field agreed on statements on what is necessary to
help SME's small firms need simple tools that describe what
they have to do in plain language; any tool developed should have a
scientific basis; an electronic tool is worth developing for the
future as more and more workplaces and individuals access the
internet; quite a few of the tools presented use safety data sheets
as a starting point, there was agreement on the fact that that the
more accurate these are the better for workers' health. The
results of the workshop have led to action points to take this
forward.
