Jacinto, C., Guedes Soares, C., Fialho, T., Antão, P., Gouveia, M. e Silva, S.A. (2011), “An overview of occupational accidents notification systems within the enlarged EU-27”, WORK: A Journal of Prevention, Assessment, and Rehabilitation, Vol. 39(4), pp. 369-378

This paper describes a scrutiny and a comparative analysis of the official forms used for reporting occupational accidents within the EU-27 member-states. The comparison is based on two analysis grids created to that effect, which incorporate a set of evaluation criteria and include an interpretation-key. The results obtained in the analysis allowed drawing attention to the relevant attributes of such forms in terms of their content and format/structure. It also revealed the main similarities/ differences between each country’s approaches, providing the "whole picture" of the 27 member-states. The discussion gives account of the level of implementation of the so-called “new” Eurostat variables within the European Statistics of Accidents at Work (ESAW). Among a number of interesting details, the study shows that certain formats (i.e., the structure of information fields) appear to be best suited to facilitate completeness of the information required. It has also demonstrated that the European harmonisation process is still far from completion, although the newcomer states seem to be “tuning” fast to the harmonisation process. The findings of this study may bring useful insights to national authorities who whish to improve/redesign their current forms, or to employers/enterprises wanting to implement their internal procedures aligned with the ESAW methodology, and also to the scientific community, whose research work relays on official statistics, preferably comparable across a wide variety of countries.
