The European Week 2003 is an information campaign with the purpose to transform Europe into a zone of safety and health at work, by promoting initiatives aimed to reduce the risks of working in the presence of dangerous substances. With the support of the European Commission and Parliament, of trade unions and employers’ federations, this annual initiative has become one of the most important events dedicated to safety and health at work, in Europe. The European Week provides a unique opportunity to focus attention on the importance of safety and health at work.

The main objectives of the European Week are: to increase awareness of risks associated with dangerous substances; to promote activities meant to reduce such risks; and to promote good practice solutions.

The European Week is coordinated by the Bilbao-based European Agency for Safety and Health at Work and will run in all 15 EU Member States, in the candidate countries, and beyond. The Agency is the European Union organization responsible for occupational safety and health information.
