The good practice refers to a manual that brings together Chilean Safety Association (Asociación Chilena de Seguridad – ACHS) methodology and experience in the implementation of effective health promotion strategies.

The manual systematically describes all the phases, activities, considerations and tools involved for the effective implementation of a workplace health promotion strategy.

The manual makes it possible to share the most effective method of workplace health promotion with other workplaces, organizations and countries. 

The Republic of Moldova is one of the major source countries of migrant workers in Europe. It is estimated that over 1 million Moldovans are migrant workers working all over Europe and beyond. In these circumstances, ensuring the equality of treatment in social security for migrant workers is of critical importance. To protect the rights of Moldovan migrants, the authorities of the Republic of Moldova have taken steps to conclude bilateral agreements on social security with the main destination states of Moldovan citizens working abroad.

Community centres provide local and a place for people belonging to different generations and social categories to meet. They have been promoting the development of social and family links by supporting resident-initiated community projects, organizing events, social activities and providing services with a social purpose since 1971. There is a special focus on vulnerable groups and favoring social diversity.

The web page "Safety and Work" (www.safety-work.org) - developed as part of the working programme for small and medium-sized enterprises of the ISSA’s Special Commission on Prevention - is currently operated and maintained by 21 international partners from seven different countries under the auspices of the BGN. It has been online since 2011 and is available in German, English, French, Italian and Spanish. The partners involved are from non-commercial organisations such as, for example, statutory insurers, employer and employee organisations and welfare organisations.

The Insurance Scheme for the Self-Employed (RSI) handles the compulsory coverage of health, maternity, disability, death, old-age and survivors’ insurance for non-agricultural self-employed workers conducting their activities in France.

The Support programme for teenage and young mothers is aimed at helping young women that, due to maternity and vulnerable conditions, show difficulties to continue or resume their education.

The Social Insurance Bank (Banco de Previsión Social (BPS)), through the Health Services General Management, implements a system of benefits that covers over sixty young women annually, with the purpose of creating opportunities for them to develop a life project, integrating maternity, social, educational and labour inclusion.

This programme, implemented by Act No. 26970 (2014), consists of a moratorium on pensions and seeks to achieve universal pension coverage, promoting social inclusion and reducing poverty and indigence among the elderly.

Temporary agricultural workers are affected by diverse vulnerability conditions: job insecurity, seasonality in their tasks, high turnover rates, internal and external migration, and the lack of registry that deprives them from social security. This situation is compounded by the weather contingencies that can threaten the crops and, hence, the revenue.

The need to maintain employment levels in order to avoid the social and economic consequences of massive unemployment was extrapolated in the creation of a Programme for employment support.

This Programme was created within the scope of the National Employment Emergency (in force since 2002) to support and promote genuine employment, in spite of the economic slowdown and the crisis experiences by certain geographic areas.
