Ewa Zielinska, President of PKN (the Polish Committee for Standardization) and CENELEC Vice-President Policy, will participate to the 8th EUROSHNET Conference, next 13-14 June in Cracow, Poland.
EUROSHNET is a European network of occupational health and safety (OSH) experts involved in standardization, testing and certification. In 2024 it is organizing its 8th Conference ‘World in transition – Europe in adaptation – OSH under pressure’. The event will take place in Cracow, Poland on 13-14 June.
European policies and legislation are in constant evolution - not least in response to global developments. Experts gathered at the 8th European conference on standardization, testing, and certification in the field of occupational safety and health will answer the burning question on what impact these changes have on occupational safety and health, and in particular on their preventive instruments: standardization, testing and certification. They will present the new political and regulatory areas of EU action, especially the EU Green Deal, Circular Economy, Digital Decade, AI Act, Cyber Resilience Act and Machinery Regulation from an OSH perspective and show how recent developments affect the design, performance and safety of new and innovative products, but also management systems and new forms of work.
The conference is addressed at OSH experts and representatives of:
- European and national public authorities
- OSH institutions
- Social partners
- Manufacturers, importers and users of products
- Accident insurance institutions
- Testing and certification bodies
- Standardization organizations
The conference is divided into 6 sessions dedicated to the following areas essential for the standardisation, testing and certification:
1. EU OSH and standardization strategies
2. AI and cyber resilience: challenges for machinery standardization and market surveillance
3. Circular Economy, Green deal and REACH: challenges and standardization
4. Human approach towards new forms of work and OSH management
5. Product design: Innovative aspects
6. Current and future challenges in standardization, testing and certification
