Occupational Health

Special Interest Group

Ensuring safety at work for its employees is a fundamental duty of any employer in any European Country. The issue of safety at work is fundamental for the European Union, which has specific competence to “protect the safety and health of workers” (Art. 153 TFEU).

Nevertheless, in the EU there are on average more than 3 million accidents at work every year, out of which about 3,500 are fatal. Many more are the illnesses caused by work, of which mental disorders (often with serious consequences), are on the increase.
The working group aims to foster cooperation between Peopil members in cross-border cases, which are now widespread in today’s work organisation on an international scale, as well as to keep the focus on changes in the world of work in order to update skills on new risks to workers’ health.

Isidoro Orea Bonilla is Chair of PEOPIL’s Occupational Health Special Interest Group (SIG). He is a Senior Associate at Osbornes Law and is dual qualified as a Solicitor in England and a Spanish “Abogado”. He specialises in personal injury law, representing clients who have suffered serious and life-changing injuries, and has particular expertise in private international law and claims involving foreign jurisdictions and cross-border elements.
