Visits to the veterinarian are essential to keep our four-legged friends fit. In turn, workers in the sector also need to rely on healthy and safe workplaces.

Some occupational hazards associated with veterinary activities are exposure to biological and chemical agents, manual handling of potentially aggressive animals and work with cutting and piercing objects.

Our two Online interactive Risk Assessment (OiRA) tools custom-made for this sector can help to assess and prevent these professional risks and contribute to the creation of a risk prevention culture in veterinary clinics in France and Bulgaria.
