Welcome Address
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
Dear colleagues and friends,
It is with great pleasure to announce the 5th Hellenic Conference on Occupational Health and Safety, an event that has become an established institution for the Greek working community. This conference is not merely an opportunity to exchange the latest scientific knowledge and developments; it is also a platform for promoting dialogue and fostering initiatives aimed at creating a healthier and more sustainable working environment.
Occupational Health and Safety is neither a luxury nor a mere formal obligation. It is a strategic priority for all — for every modern society that seeks development with respect for human dignity. At ELINYAE, we work daily to strengthen prevention, advance scientific evidence, and support workers and businesses with practical tools and reliable knowledge, connecting the national Occupational Health and Safety ecosystem with international trends and developments in the field.
Our conference brings together scientists, professionals, and representatives of the State and of the industry — people who share the same vision: to make work safer for everyone. The presentations, discussions, and best practices that will be shared, constitute a valuable material for policy design, the enhancement of a prevention culture, and the promotion of innovative solutions.
We warmly invite you all to participate!
Sincerely,
Rena Bardani
Chair of the Board, ELINYAE
Chair of the Conference Organizing Committee
Target Audience
The conference is addressed to all those involved in the management of health and safety issues, as well as to anyone interested in the present and future of health and safety at work.
It is also addressed to every citizen, because health and safety is a critical value not only in the workplace, but in all activities of life too. Everyone can derive useful information.
