Col DDG No. 13559 of the Lombardy Region are approved the "ADDRESSES GENERAL RISK ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT OF STRESS IN THE LIGHT OF EUROPEAN BUSINESS 10/08/2004", with which one of the most careful the problem of safety at work aims to provide guidance relating to 'obscure problem of evaluation of occupational stress.
The document, available to 'address: http://www.sanita.regione.lombardia.it/shared/ccurl/843/708/DDG% 2013559% 2010_12_2009.pdf was carried out by the Laboratory "Stress and Work" , a workshop on the theme started under the Regional Plan 2004 -2006 and continued through the next three-year plan 2008-2010 for the promotion of health and safety in the workplace. Although
on hold, as established by Legislative Decree 106/09, concerning the evaluation of the indications that the Standing Consultative Commission for the health and safety at work could make by August 2010, the document aims to take stock of the situation and, after an analysis of existing tools, to provide a first example of a possible evaluation approach.
First is carefully explored the now famous European framework agreement on work-related stress, that the regulatory level (art. 28-Leg. 81/08) represents and will represent the benchmark for evaluation but also (and it seems that not many have noticed it) for preventive measures.
Then the paper provides a list of the key stressors (stressors) in accordance with the scientific literature, and then analyze the "criteria, methods and tools related stress workplace and the process of evaluation and management of specific risk. "
the fourth chapter we propose a possible approach to evaluate, and conclude with an illustration of the role played by regional and local services.
Very interesting, in particular, the chapters are for the analysis of assessment tools and the schedule of the proposed model, although the approaches set out seem a little excessive.
Without taking anything away, in fact, the extreme importance of the phenomenon and the need to combat it effectively, it must be remembered that the business realities not always possible to engage at 360 degrees all the figures and prevention workers, and for the simultaneous presence of other risk factors to monitor and prevent, both to the needs of manufacturing companies, which at a critical time like the present can not be neglected.
the good work and good intentions, in fact, the study group that drafted this document, draw a profile that is unfortunately sometimes idealistic, and that will collide with the clear requirements of the corporate structure and who guides them. Overcoming these obstacles will be then up to the legislature and control bodies, as at present lacks a culture of prevention rather that is the standard of our countries most committed in the security field. When all the business logic, in fact, include the prevention is the primary factor in savings and increased productivity, then resources will be complex surgery.
Whatever the current situation, however, the guidelines of the Lombardy Region to serve at least do a little light on a topic too obscure. In the economic logic that each professional brings with it new risks, in fact, too many useless tools have been proposed, many of outdated or low level were used, as they are multiplied by agencies or professionals who offer themselves as single point of contact for evaluation.
