Many studies have previously tackled this question by evaluating the costs of poor or non-existent safety and health at work. This report reviews a selection of these studies and analyses the estimating methods used by each. It focuses on five different types of cost productivity, healthcare, quality of life, administration and insurance that emerge as a consequence of poor occupational safety and health and how these costs affect four types of stakeholders workers, employers, government and society. The report goes on to recommend how these costs should be estimated in the future to best inform policy-makersMateria / lugar / evento: Seguridad e higiene en el trabajo Coste de los accidentes Enfermedades profesionales Métodos de estimación objetiva Europa Otros autores: Weerd, Marjolein de
