To enhance the traditional understanding of prevention

• Reactive proactive

• Written rules local rules, situation-specific, dynamic, tacit, never complete in coverage, often heuristic

• Top down bottom up

• Control / penalty

Empowerment of people / social investment policies(z.B. management of age, family benefits programmes, reducing health inequalities linked to social inequalities)


Training is only one side….


Empowerment of people

Training in prevention as the “joker”

• Take care for the competencies of all stakeholders

Conclusions II

• Teachers / trainers

• Labour inspectors / safety experts • Managers

• Define the key-competencies for each level: assign them to the European Qualifications Framework (EQF, 2008)

A competent performance implies the mobilisation of knowledge, cognitive and practical skills, as well as social and behaviour components such as attitudes, emotions and values and motivations (OECD, 2003).
