| Abstract |
Modern safety training programmes aim at promoting in trainees the aptitude to pinpoint the various hazard factors in the working environment (and not merely the individual factor) converging to cause an accident. A safety training seminar was organised for trade unionists by the Commission of the European Communities with a view, inter alia, to test the reaction of the trade unions to the new concepts and to seek new training methods. This article outlines the criticisms voiced by the trade unions, which were directed against the underlying concepts behind this new approach, and against the teaching aids presented. Detailed comments on these criticisms show more clearly the complementary roles of theoretical research and continuous collective assessment of the working environment by workers, and emphasise the difficulties which still remain to be overcome. |
