protecting work in the EU
Working life can at the same time act as a risk and a positive factor for the health of employees and their families.
Poor working conditions, high-strain jobs and a stressful organisational culture can lead to accidents, injuries and ill-health and contribute to lifestyle patterns which are detrimental to health. Good working conditions on the other hand provide an adequate framework to support health, and to develop a sense of purpose and well-being.
The EU aims to:cut the number of accidents at work by a quarter between 2007 and 2012; –promote changes in the behaviour of workers and encourage their employers to adopt health- –focused approaches;finalise the methods for identifying and evaluating new potential risks; –establish and disseminate good practice. –
A dedicated agency, the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA), aims to support the work in favour of information, guidance and promotion of healthy working environments.

................................................................................................................................................................
Sometimes, information is all that is required for an employer or worker to address safety and health issues effectively. We at EU-OSHA aim to be the central provider of that information and ensure that it is relevant to every user, regardless of size of enterprise or sector of activity. Set up in 1996 by the European Union and located in Bilbao, Spain, EU-OSHA is the main EU reference point for safety and health at work.
our central role is to contribute to the improvement of working life in the European Union. We work with governments, employers and workers to promote a risk prevention culture. –We analyse new scientific research and statistics on workplace risks. –We anticipate new and emerging risks through our European Risk Observatory. –We identify and share information, good practice and advice with a wide range of audiences, such –as social partners - employers’ federations and trade unions.
Our main awareness-raising activity is the Healthy Workplaces campaign, which focuses on a different theme every two years.
EU-OSHA is a key player in the Community Strategy for Health and Safety at Work, 2007-2012, which aims to cut work-related accidents by a quarter across the EU and to reduce occupational illnesses.

More than 20 years ago, a whale had been stranded in shallow waters off Bohai Bay. Local villagers flocked to the beach in order to snatch a piece of flesh from the dying creature and – when rescuers arrived – only a carcass was left. I was shocked by the story and felt a stabbing pain in my heart. How had such an incredible tragedy happened in China, where people – since ancient times – believed in harmony between man and nature, and cherished every life? Back then, I thought, that if I were to be a journalist, I would do everything I could to arouse awareness of ecology and environmental protection.
More than two decades after that tragic incident, I became president of the Xinhua News Agency. In March this year, I saw on TV another whale had been washed ashore, this time at Hangzhou Bay where I used to work. The whale struggled to get back into deep water but all its efforts were in vain. When local fishermen saw the whale, they immediately reported it to the authorities and then quickly began rescue work. It eventually took 18 people more than two hours to get the whale back out to deep waters. The rescuers, including police and fishermen, raced against time to save the whale, putting their own lives at risk on two boats in danger of capsizing at any time.

ExErCIsE 2. gEnErAL gUIDELInEsread the text below giving you advice on how to write a CV. Then make a list of the different pieces of advice.
Presentation and sequence of items with your CV are very important, as it is in advertising. When you are selling anything you need to get to the key points quickly. The quicker the reader can read and absorb the key points the more likely they are to buy. A well presented and well-structured CV also indicates that you are professional, business-like and well organised. The structure should sell your strengths first and provide personal and career history details last - most people do it the other way round which has less impact. Structuring a CV like this you can immediately stand out from the others and make a much better impression.
Always try to use as few words as possible. In CV writing, like advertising, „less is more”. This means you need to think carefully about the words you use - make sure each one is working for you - if any aren’t, remove them or replace them. Never use two words when one will do.
When describing your experience and achievements, select examples that are relevant to the the job vacancy, and relevant to the manner in which the employer requires the job be performed.
Not all experience statements (or any of them, in the case of young people at the start of their careers) need to be work-based. Look for non-work experience in other parts of your life that provides evidence of what the employer is seeking.
Construct your experience phrases so that they will demonstrate experience and capabilities that are relevant to employer’s job requirements. Create a list of 5-7 key activities which closely match the employer’s needs for the job, and for which you can demonstrate competence. Create phrases which add context and scale to whichever of these basic activities you choose to feature.
For example, if we take the activity ’planning’, here’s a phrase which attaches some context and scale, in this case for a telesales manager:
„Planning and budgeting annual sales department activities for 10 telesales people.” Or for Managing, training and developing: „Management, training and development of a consumer telesales team - 15 staff, 3,000 customers,
Ł3m revenues.”Employers will be looking for experience-type evidence in some of these areas, depending on what
the job requires. Think about what the employer needs in the job. The job advert often provides good indicators if it is well worded.

The Cover Letter (CL) is the document that accompanies your CV when you are applying for a job. The CL is short (200-250 words), with a quite rigid structure and has the layout of a letter. Its goal is to introduce the CV, to bring to attention aspects of your activity that can help your application and are not listed or not presented in the proper light in the CV. In short, its goal is to answer the recruiter’s question: „Why should I hire this person?”.

ExErCIsE 3. A rEAL JoB InTErVIEwIn pairs, role-play a job interview. one of you will be the interviewer, the other is the applicant. The applicant should give the interviewer his/her CV (that was for homework) who will read it carefully. The applicant will be applying for his/her ‘dream job’: they should the general guidelines about going to job interviews before you begin. Interviewers can use the questions of the previous exercise or use different ones.when you finished, change roles.
general guidelinesjob interviews are always stressful - even for job seekers who have gone on countless interviews. The best way to reduce the stress is to be prepared. Take the time to review the „standard” interview questions you will most likely be asked. Also review sample answers to these typical interview questions. Then take the time to research the company. That way you’ll be ready with knowledgeable answers for the job interview questions that specifically relate to the company you are interviewing with. The most important rule for teen interviewing is to dress appropriately. Unfortunately, the clothes you might wear everyday to the mall, or out with friends, usually aren’t suitable for an interview.
Write down the job interview.
