 Construction Safety
Construction is recognized as a high risk sector, with high rates of mortality and injury. Both the EU and US are cooperatively working towards more effective solutions in workplace safety and health to reduce injury rates and save lives.

 Ergonomics
Ergonomics, or human factors, can be described as 'designing for human use'. Work-related musculoskeletal disorders that arise when the job is not fitted to the worker, are costly to both employers and workers.
