According to the European statistics on work related accidents and health impairments, the general situation still remains critical. In Italy approximately three fatalities/day are recorded. The causes are poor Hazard Iden-tification, uncritical Risk Assessment and, consequently, Risk Management lacking of a Quality approach. The Culture of Safety is a basic tool to support improvements of the situation. Its dissemination finds important al-location at the University education stage. Moreover, the cooperation programs involving Universities and top managers lay at the very base of Occupational Safety & Health (OS&H) improvements, particularly in critical NACE sectors. Politecnico di Torino provides Bachelor, Master Degree, Post-Graduate Master and PhD courses covering multidisciplinary aspects, with remarkable occupational success. The Authors provide infor-mation on organization and contents of a Master Degree course, whose applied part is based on Problem Based Learning, starting from in depth analyses of occurred work related fatalities, targeted to discuss suita-ble prevention measures.

Abstract: | According to the European statistics on work related accidents and health impairments, the genera...l situation still remains critical. In Italy approximately three fatalities/day are recorded. The causes are poor Hazard Iden-tification, uncritical Risk Assessment and, consequently, Risk Management lacking of a Quality approach. The Culture of Safety is a basic tool to support improvements of the situation. Its dissemination finds important al-location at the University education stage. Moreover, the cooperation programs involving Universities and top managers lay at the very base of Occupational Safety & Health (OS&H) improvements, particularly in critical NACE sectors. Politecnico di Torino provides Bachelor, Master Degree, Post-Graduate Master and PhD courses covering multidisciplinary aspects, with remarkable occupational success. The Authors provide infor-mation on organization and contents of a Master Degree course, whose applied part is based on Problem Based Learning, starting from in depth analyses of occurred work related fatalities, targeted to discuss suita-ble prevention measures. | |
