Social
Workplace violence and
harassment:
a European picture
Concern about the effects of workplace violence and
harassment on the health and safety of workers has
been growing over the last decade. Both third-party
violence and harassment may have extremely negative
consequences for the individuals affected and their
families, co-workers and organisations, as well as
society as a whole.
The report concludes that there is a clear need
to promote and disseminate good practice and
prevention measures that are sensitive to the national
context. Some measures proposed by the European
Union, ILO, WHO and national experts are
presented in the report.

Harm reduction:
evidence, impacts and challenges
Harm reduction encompasses interventions,
programmes and policies that seek to reduce the
health, social and economic harms of drug use to
individuals, communities and societies.
A core principle of harm reduction is the development
of pragmatic responses to dealing with dug use
through a hierarchy of intervention goals that place
primary emphasis on reducing the health-related
harms of continued drug use.
