summary: The Commission presented a working document accompanying the Commission communication to the European Parliament, the Council, the Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on the modernisation of the EU occupational safety and health legislation and policy.
The detailed ex-post evaluation of the EU acquis, checking their relevance as well as efficiency, effectiveness, coherence and EU added value, carried out by the Commission confirms that the framework meets its ambition to adequately protect workers.
Main conclusions : the evaluation concluded that the overall structure of the EU occupational safety and health acquis, consisting of a goal-oriented Framework Directive complemented by specific Directives, is generally effective and fit-for-purpose.
However, it pointed to specific provisions of individual Directives that have become outdated or obsolete , and highlighted the need to find effective ways to address new risks .
The way in which Member States have transposed the EU occupational safety and health Directives varies considerably across Member States. Compliance costs therefore vary and cannot be easily dissociated from more detailed national requirements.
As regards SMEs : the evaluation clearly concluded that compliance with the occupational safety and health Directives is more challenging for SMEs than large establishments, while at the same time the major and fatal injury rates are higher for SMEs . Specific support measures are therefore necessary to reach SMEs and help them increase their compliance in an efficient and effective way.
Next steps : the evaluation considered that occupational safety and health measures should reach the widest number of people at work, no matter the type of working relationship they are in, and no matter the size of company they work for . Compliance with occupational safety and health rules should be manageable for businesses of all sizes and effectively monitored on the ground.
Measures must be result-oriented, instead of paper-driven, and maximum use should be made of new digital tools to facilitate implementation.
Characteristics of the evaluation : this exercise also forms part of the Commission's Regulatory Fitness (REFIT) Programme with a special focus on SMEs. In this respect, the evaluation concentrated both on Framework Directive 89/391/EEC and on the other 23 directives related to it.
The evaluation also concerned Directive 2009/104/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the minimum safety and health requirements for the use of work equipment by workers at work (second individual Directive within the meaning of Article 16(1) of Directive 89/391/EEC).
Directive 2009/104/EC lays down minimum safety and health requirements for the use of work equipment by workers at work. The main objective of the Directive is a reduction in the incidence of accidents, injuries and ill-health associated with the use of work equipment.
The Work Equipment Directive remains relevant to safeguard the health and safety of workers in the EU. The available statistics on the causes and circumstances of accidents at work point to the conclusion that the Directive has been broadly effective, though the situation differs considerably from Member State to Member State depending on the work equipment type considered.
The main suggestions/recommendations from the national implementation reports were to adopt a uniform approach towards old and new equipment , to define the notion of "specific risk" used in the Directive and to define criteria for inspection of work equipment and competence of persons charged with inspection referred to in the Directive (inspection of work equipment).
Furthermore, based on the conclusions of the evaluation study, further consideration should be given to enhancing synergies between the Work Equipment Directive and Directive 2006/42/EC ( Work Equipment Directive ).

summary: PURPOSE: to codify legislation concerning the minimum safety and health requirements for the use of work equipment by workers at work.
PROPOSED ACT: Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council.
CONTENT: the purpose of this proposal is to undertake a codification of Council Directive 89/655/EEC of 30 November 1989 concerning the minimum safety and health requirements for the use of work equipment by workers at work. The new Directive will supersede the various acts incorporated in it. This proposal fully preserves the content of the acts being codified and hence does no more than bring them together with only such formal amendments as are required by the codification exercise itself.

summary: On 6 November 2006, the Commission presented a proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council codifying Council Directive 89/655/EEC of 30 December 1989 concerning the minimum safety and health requirements for the use of work equipment by workers at work (second individual Directive within the meaning of Article 16(1) of Directive 89/391/EEC).
In its advisory opinion of 13 December 2006, the Legal Services Consultative Working Party set up by the Interinstitutional Agreement of 20 December 2006 on an accelerated working method for official codification of legislative texts, stated that the proposal is a straightforward codification of legislation, without any substantive changes to the acts covered by it
Given the new amendments that have been introduced since the initial proposal and the result of the work that has already been carried out within the Council on the proposal, it is deemed necessary that the Commission present – in accordance with article 250(2) of the EC Treaty – an amended proposal for codification of Directive 89/655/ECC.
The amendments to the proposal for an amended initial proposal focus on:
modifying the notes to pages 8, 10 and 11; deleting paragraphs 2 and 3 from article 12; updating the tables set out in annex III of the Directive following the publication of Directive 2007/30/EC; modifying annex IV (correlation table) following the amendments to the provision.

summary: The Committee on Legal Affairs adopted a report drafted by Lidia Joanna GERINGER de OEDENBERG (PES, PL) approving, under the 1st reading of the codecision procedure, on the amended proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the minimum safety and health requirements for the use of work equipment by workers at work (second individual Directive within the meaning of Article 16(1) of Directive 89/391/EEC) (codified version). It is recalled that this is a reconsultation of Parliament.
Although the proposal was not the subject of the parliamentary committee’s “formal” amendments, the proposal does, however, take into account the recommendations of the Consultative Working Party of the respective legal services of the European Parliament, Council and Commission.
