PROSAFE Supports Stakeholders Call for a European database of Accidents and Injuries
PROSAFE launches a message of support for the Joint Call "The need for a pan-European accident and injury data system" on the European Institutions and the Member States. 28 European associations from across the economic and social spectrum joined forces to call for the creation of an adequately-funded, single European accident and injury data system that should build upon the principles developed in several Member States. It should also be similar to the US National Electronic Injury Surveillance System and provide data from samples of national accident and emergency departments. For more information, please click on the call, background document and joint press release.
