EU-OSHA aims to make European workplaces safer, healthier and more productive by developing, analysing and disseminating information on occupational safety and health (OSH). In its role as a reference point for OSH information, EU-OSHA commissions, collects, analyses, and publishes research and statistics on OSH risks.

The general purpose of the OSHwiki is to provide relevant, reliable and updated information on a variety of OSH topics through a sustainable stock of OSHwiki articles giving a European view on OSH.

OSHwiki is an online encyclopaedia including articles written by EU-OSHA itself or written by independent authors that have been provided access by EU-OSHA.
