Europe’s strength lies in a shared commitment to freedom, democracy, equality and solidarity, values that must be also reflected in the world of work.

When workers are heard, informed and involved in decisions affecting their safety and health, risks are identified earlier, and a culture of prevention grows stronger.

On Europe Day, 9 May, we highlight the importance of nurturing participation and safeguarding dignity in working life as foundations for safer, healthier and more inclusive workplaces.

Let’s celebrate Europe Day 2026
