Risks emerging from introduction of New technologies including methodology of integrated risk management for new technologies

Methods to maintain safety of aged and repaired structures and provide technologies for life extension & Reliability based design and structural health monitoring (SHM) and risk based inspection technologies


1.4-2 Other important topics (as agreed in 2009)

Technologies for inherently safer design of industrial plants and installations (to reduce major-accident hazards)

Application of advanced information technologies in safety-related systems, including new sensors, protection systems and software tools for

detecting dangerous situations in machines and production processes

Define and recommend "Best Practices" for risk assessment and management:· Consistency, integration, harmonization, standardization, experience transfer between sectors· Performance based, not prescriptive


1.5 Lead Market Initiative: Protective Textile

Technical textiles for intelligent personal protective clothing and equipment

This market comprises clothing and other textile-based systems accessories and related services whose main function is to protect the user. These high-tech products are used under very different circumstances such as by professionals and emergency services operating in hazardous environments or dangerous situations.

http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/policies/innovation/policy/lead-market-initiative/protective-textiles/index_en.htm

In 2009: 7 research projects selected for funding


1.6 ERANET Industrial Safety(visibility + coordination of MS R&D)

Decision of the Mirror Group in June 2009 to propose an ERANET on Industrial Safety

FP7-NMP-2011 call published in July 2010: Consortium formed by national and regional OSH Institutes (CK, D, ES, FI, FR, GR, NL, PO… ) devoloped SAF€RA (approved by EC)

Preliminary expressions of interest on the content by the Member States: Economical measurement of industrial safety (including Cost-Benefit

Analysis for decision-making and consultation for decision-making) Technologies for inherently safer design of industrial plants &

installations (to reduce major-accident hazards) Management of risks emerging from the introduction of new

technologies including “green technologies” … Ageing at Workplace !!

Finished negotiation with EC; Kick-off meeting held on 2-3 May 2012


1.7 SafeFuture initiativeSafety as a trade-mark of the technology “made in EU”

Safe innovation for sustainable future

Safe Infrastructures:

•Life extension of process plants, transport infra-structures, power plants… •Intensification ofNatCat (NaTech)•Design and monitoringfor long term operation

Safe Energy:

•New energy carriers for ground vehicles (FEV, fuel cells, CNG, H2…)•Deployment of sustainable fuels in the aviation sector

Safe Products/Production :

•Green jobs•Value chain and interdependencies•Nanosafety

Example: Multi-Risk / Risk-Risk tradeoffs – safety for sustainable integration, interaction and risk governance:

•“Agreed Approach to Risk-Risk Tradeoff management” (the Multi-Risk initiative); difficulties in putting together different risk mitigation policies and ensuring their compatibility

Way to achieving (by 2020) a new safety paradigm for European industry. Safety as a key factor for successful business and an inherent element of business performance. Industrial safety performance progressively and measurably improved in terms of reduction of reportable accidents at work, occupational diseases, environmental incidents and accident-related production losses. “Incident elimination” and “learning from failures” cultures embedded in design, maintenance, operation at all levels in enterprises. Structured self-regulated safety programs in all major industry sectors in all European countries. Measurable performance targets for accident elimination and accident free mind set workplaces as the norm in Europe.


Initiative of PESI with the collaboration of eVIA (Spanish TP for AAL), supported by Fundación TECNALIA Research & Innovation (Health, Social Innovation & Industrial Technologies)

2.1.- Ageing at Workplace: Starting-up from PESI FGs & eVIA

Roadmap Coordination Team:

Javier González-Lodoso (TECNALIA, Health Technologies), eVIA Member Alfonso Oltra (IBV), FG-4 Coordinator at PESI

Ageing at Workplace Roadmap: development based on a multi-level analysis: Human factors and organization Working environment and human factor Individual factors Occupational Safety and organization/industrial safety

(risk or emergency situations)

Roadmap Structure :1. Working environment Analysis2. Ageing effects: description, analysis and assesment3. Relationship between ageing and work4. Action plan for effective aged workers participation and

health at work

In-detail development for relevant industrial sectors (Energy, Chemistry, Manufacturing, Iron/steel, Construction,…) and businesses (commerce, offices) by the end of 2012

2.3.- Roadmap Proposal (from PESI/ETPIS and eVIA)


Some relevant issues at Industry (among others): Age of Workers: average age increasing very fast (also in

subcontractors) Knowledge and expertise transfer (generational swift & coupling) Critical or risky jobs and aged people

Sharing R&D and innovation activities: Smart working environments and smart homes: many common

aspects (also technologies) Common development platforms and components (HW & SW) Aged workers in assisted working environments: more culture and

confidency to accept AAL technology-based solutions & services

AAL market: many doubts !? why not joining efforts with future fast emerging market for aged

workers at industry/business ?

2.4.- Industrial Safety (ETPIS), Ageing at Workplace & AAL


Objective: to develop a specific protocol for the characterization of main demands from relevant and representative jobs in Industry; to identify ageing-related factors that affect worker-company relationship.

Expected result: a map with job profiles and their characterisitics and demands.

Necessary steps: WP 1.1. Labour market. WP 1.2. Definition & characterization of job profiles WP 1.3. Descripction and analysis of occupational sectors

3.- WP1: Working environment analysis


Objective: in-depth analysis of worker competences/capacities and their evolution as ageing; so as to determine the influencing barrieres and facilitators on those. Such characterization should consider two relevant aspects:1. Essential demands (phisical, psyco-social, corporate organization…2. Certain factors that directly interact with such evolution in the

competences/capacities of people (workers).

Initially factors to be considered are:- Gender factors Influencia de los factores de género.- Education- Origins- Dissabilities- Chronic disseases

4.- WP2: Ageing effects: description, analysis & assesment


WP2 structure:

WP 2.1. Definition and description of ageing and elderdy

WP 2.2. Analysis of the competences/capacities evolution as ageing WP2.2.1. Evolution according to age, health and life events in

non-risky goups

WP2.2.2 Evolution according to age, health and life events in risky goups: dissable persons, women and

migrants

WP 2.3. Population segmentation in ageing process

WP 2.4. Development of a profile map relating necessary and desiderable working capacities

4.2.- WP2 - Ageing effects: structure and content


Objective: Keys that encourage or retain adaptation of an aged person to the changes or evolution at work

The adaptation skill is influenced by many issues at different levels: micro (his/her education level, cultural level, expertise, way of life,

personal expectations…) meso (how interact with close environment: company bussines,

family, etc.) or macro (related to political or social issues)

WP3 Structure: WP 3.1. Global interaction between work and age WP 3.2. Relationship between work and aged worker: barriers and

facilitators analysis (by objectives) WP 3.3. Detection of problems and specific interactions.

Comparaisson of aged workers profile and job descriptions

5.- WP 3: Relationship Ageing-Work


Barriers and facilitators analysis shows:

WP 3.2.1 … learning, training, and work deployment support

WP 3.2.2 … home-Work-free time-health equity (conciliation at the whole personal areas)

WP 3.2.3 … work acceptance and access

WP 3.2.4 … risk prevention and professional diseasses avoiding

WP 3.2.5 … emergency situations

WP 3.2.6 … retirement preparation (both enterprise and worker perspectives)

5.2- PT3-2: Relationship between work and aged worker: analysis of barriers and facilitors (by objectives)


Correction & control meassures of bothe the risk actors and the barriers or multiplying isues of facilitators on respect to the aged worker

Meassures to be adopted to encourage the aging management and to facilitate the qualification and adaptation of aged workers. Objectives are to protect the ageing worker and help company to implant the needed actions and requirements.

Individual training plan and guidance on those issues for the best adaptation to the job during that evolution.

Guidance for both the worker and the company to improve all positive characteristics of aged workers and their contribution to the workplace

Structure: WP 4.1. General Programmes (actions and intervention) WP 4.2. Specific changing proposals (better improvements) WP 4.3. Good practices.

6.- WP4: Plan for active participation and occupational health of aged workers


WP 4.1. Global Programmes for actions and intervention:

Labour and Social Policies to improve employabilbity and quality of life at workplace for aged workers

Corporate and social Culture, oriented to diversity and recognition of ageing workers

Attitudes Change inside the organization. Recruiting process and job adaptation Updating: training and professional carrer (development and

promotion) Healthy ageing Way towards retirement Knowledge and experience Transfer; Inter-generation relationship

6.1- WP 4.1 General Programme for actions and intervention


Description of different alternatives based on organizational methods, technologies and/or both, that will permit to fulllfil and cover aspects for objectives at WP 3.2.1, WP 3.2.2, WP 3.2.3, WP 3.2.4, WP 3.2.5, WP3.2.6.

Basic Principles Work environment design and work atmosphere creation Content Design of working descriptions: physical loads, cognitive y

psycosocial issues, etc. Work Organization

6.2- WP4.2. Propossals for better practices

6.3- WP4.3. Good practices

PT4.3. Good practices: Enterprise Programmes Examples of good practices, …


My personal view: Should help Enterprises to appreciate the high value of aged

workers in: Innovation: industrial processes, products, etc Coaching younger workers so as managers !!

Keeping the Enterprise Knowledge (asset) Knowledge: experience+expertise+good practices KM: a big challenge (not only IT-based solutions but mainly attitude

and direct actions)

7.- Some final contributions (challenges)
