The Basi in dialog

Clear Filters

Are standardization and occupational health and safety like ships passing each other in the dark, or do they actively complement each other in their objectives? How do standards play a role in occupational health and safety? These and many other aspects will be discussed in the latest edition of the successful online event “Die Basi im Dialog”. Join us on April 25, 2024, 3:30 p.m. – and feel free to inform other interested parties. You can already register now.

The format “Die Basi im Dialog” is once again celebrating a continuation: The livestream of the event “AI and occupational safety” with Prof. Dr. Lars Adolph, Scientific Director “Products and Work Systems” and Coordinator AI at the Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (BAuA) is online.

Avoiding work intensification, mastering digitalization and dealing with the consequences of climate change and decarbonization – these are just some of the many challenges that occupational safety will face in the future. The hybrid event “Die Basi in Dialogue with the DGUV and EU-OSHA” in Berlin focused on how risks are scientifically identified and what is already being done to counter them. Around 490 participants took part in lively surveys and put numerous questions to Dr. Christian Felten, Managing Director of the Federal Working Group for Safety and Health at Work (Basi), who chaired the dialogue.

Do we work more relaxed and effectively if we plan more intensively and precisely? How do we deal safely with carcinogenic hazardous substances? And: What risks to our health can we generally expect in the workplace in the future? Answers to these and other topical questions can be found at the upcoming events of Basi, the Federal Working Group for Safety and Health at Work, with its guests – online, on site or hybrid. From October 2022, the “Call for Participation” will also be looking for exciting topics for the A+A Congress 2023.

Companies that focus on sustainable occupational health and safety are well positioned – also economically. The discussion partners at the first edition of the online format “Die Basi im Dialog” agreed on this. Around 200 participants put many questions to Dr Christian Felten, Managing Director of Basi, the Federal Working Group for Safety and Health at Work, and his guest Sebastian Bartels, Senior Vice President and Head of Global Sustainability Services at the global expert organization DEKRA.

How valuable are health and safety at work – not only in terms of motivated, healthy employees, but also for the sustainability and competitiveness of companies? What approaches are there, for example, for decision-makers to integrate occupational health and safety into sustainability strategies? What should company stakeholders do? Answers to these and many other questions were provided at the successful 1st online edition of “Die Basi im Dialog”. The recorded event will be available to watch shortly, and a follow-up report and a collection of links to the topics addressed will be sent out with the Basi News.
