Roadmap on Carcinogens

Annually more than 100.000 people die because of work-related cancer. Let’s join forces to find and share smart solutions to reduce exposure to carcinogens across European workplaces. We encourage and help others to raise awareness and share knowledge. The roadmap will function as the hub of activities undertaken in industries, companies and governments. From 2021 the Roadmap on Carcinogens is running twelve challenges to gain further impact, all to help prevent our workers from getting exposed to carcinogens. These challenges focus on the following four goals: - Creating awareness through Europe among businesses and workers on the risks of exposure to carcinogenic substances and the need for preventive actions. - Providing help to businesses and workers in preventing exposure to carcinogens on the work floor and minimize its effect on the workforce. - Mobilising stakeholders and increasing the involvement of relevant parties such as sectors and industry to multiply our efforts throughout Europe. - Targeting innovation to bridge the gap between research findings and businesses’ needs.
