VI Master Plan for Prevention of Occupational Risks

Background

The Government of our Region, faced with the need to implement essential policies that would improve the working conditions of workers in the Community of Madrid, in 2001, at the request of the Assembly of Madrid, considered it appropriate to elaboration of a strategic plan that would allow to fight against labor accidents as well as to implant a preventive culture in the Community of Madrid, which would be agreed with the most representative social agents of our Region, that is, the Madrid Business Confederation-CEOE (CEIM) , USMR-CCOO and UGT-MADRID. Thus, as a result of said social dialogue, between 2002 and 2007, the I and II Master Plan for the Prevention of Occupational Risks of the Community of Madrid were approved.

However, it would be necessary to wait until May 13, 2008, the date on which the III Master Plan for the Prevention of Occupational Risks of the Community of Madrid (2008-2011) was approved, so that the working method included in said instrument was based on a solid diagnosis offered by the results obtained from the implementation of its predecessors, which allowed not only a more adequate planning of each and every one of the actions included in this III Master Plan, but also that the objectives that were intended to be achieved with these actions would be more effective in terms of reducing workplace accidents during the term of the agreement.

Taking into account the important role that this III Master Plan had in the fight against occupational accidents in the territory of the Community of Madrid, the diagnosis and analysis of the labor market and occupational accidents in our Region is carried out based on its evolution from 2008 to the present, a period in which the IV and V Master Plan for the Prevention of Occupational Risks have also been in force, within the framework of which successive actions have been carried out that have made it possible to continue advancing in reducing the workplace accidents with a high degree of compliance with the objectives set by them.
