International Safety & Health Construction Coordinators Organisation (ISHCCO)
Network Meeting

Friday, 20.10.2017
9:00 – 13:00
2nd Floor, Room 26

German-English simultaneously

International Safety and Health Construction Co-ordination has been successful in the European Economic Area over the past two to three decades. Evaluations by the European Commission confirm this, but also show that there are significant potential for improvement.
The results of the surveys show that an essential key to unlocking this potential is an improved and more uniform professional qualification of health and safety coordinators.
ISHCCO, as the umbrella organization of the European Associations of Safety and Health Coordinators, has developed the ISHCCO Qualification Framework (IQR / IQF) on the basis of the European Qualifications Framework and adopted it unanimously in 2017 in all 13 member countries.
The event will present the IQR / IQF together with an overview of the current state of health and safety coordination and further developments.
