"The transition to the capitalist-type economy and integration in the European Union demand and have prompted big changes in the way the workers' health and safety are protected. HSW legislation has been aligned with EU law, and responsibility for prevention now lies entirely with employers, with the role of the unions and employee involvement have been expanded. New institutions have been set up, and existing ones further developed to implement specifi c regulations. Economic, demographic and labour market developments have made it hard to achieve appropriate levels of health and safety at work, and this is refl ected in performance indicator trends: the rate, severity and frequency of work accidents, occupational disease fi gures, etc. To address these issues, Romania has adopted a national policy and strategy to develop an organizational culture in which the stakeholders can be proactive and assume their role in developing the best possible work environment.
