A+A
From November 4 to 7, 2025, Düsseldorf will become the meeting place for everyone committed to occupational safety and health. The 39th International Congress on Occupational Safety and Occupational Medicine (A+A Congress) will bring together experts from around the world – including scientists, workplace practitioners, executives, occupational physicians, and policymakers. They all share one goal: to make the world of work safer, healthier, and more future-proof.
A+A, the world’s leading trade fair for personal protection, occupational safety and health at work, has published a new white paper on the topic of ‘New Work – The Future of Work’. It offers practical insights into current developments in healthy, safe and future-oriented working environments – with contributions from science, business and society.
Make a note now, the best is coming at the end of the year: The A+A Congress 2025 (November 4 to 7, 2025) promises to be a highlight – with a variety of exciting topics and innovative approaches as well as the opportunity for experts to exchange ideas at the numerous forums.
Here you will find a foretaste.
Common goal: More safety and health at work! The Federal Working Group for Safety and Health at Work (Basi) hosted a board and members’ meeting at the home of Basi member DIN in Berlin. The guests came in large numbers and were committed to making the event a success. The meetings focused on preparations for the A+A Congress 2025, which will be enriched by many new aspects. In this context, the Basi is extending its deadline for the Call for Participation until November 15, 2024.
How can sustainability be taken into account and implemented for personal protective equipment (PPE)? At the 5th A+A Expert Talk on November 5, 2024, best practice examples will be used to demonstrate the exemplary structures for the sustainable use of PPE in companies. Christine Hentschel, Business Development Manager Sustainability at the Uvex Safety Group, and Bernadette Niehaus, Sustainability Manager at 3 M Germany, will be speaking from 10 a.m. onwards. They will be available online for discussions until 11 am.
Successful new concepts presented at the A+A Congress are among the important topics in the ASU Magazine – Journal for Medical Prevention. Speakers and keynote speakers engaged by Basi at the A+A Congress present their ideas in a series of articles. Some texts have already been published, and Basi is planning more together with the editorial team – with a view to the 39th International A+A Congress in 2025.
To mark World Day for Safety and Health at Work on April 28, 2024, the leading international trade fair A+A and the Federal Association for Occupational Safety and Health (Basi) are emphasizing their commitment to the further development of global occupational health and safety.
