Our expertise puts us at the forefront when it comes to occupational diseases caused by exposure to hazardous substances. We collaborate with employers and employees, knowledge institutes, civil society organisations and ministries but act independently when it comes to forming opinions. That is the basis of our scientific integrity. We are also transparent about the way in which we operate. The results of our work and its substantiation are publicly accessible.
