Strengthen efforts to prevent workplace violence.
s.02As chair of the "Violence, Work, Employment, and Health" commission for the Tursz report, psychoanalyst and psychiatrist Christophe Dejours recommends, among other measures, increasing funding for research and establishing specialized counseling centers to provide care for victims of workplace violence. He emphasizes that efforts should not be limited to preventing workplace violence, but should address all causes of violence related to employment in general, including unemployment, illegal work, and subcontracting. At the request of the Ministry of Health and Solidarity and under the chairmanship of Dr. Anne Tursz, a pediatrician, epidemiologist, and research director at Inserm, six preparatory committees produced a body of reflections and analyses. This work resulted in a final report by Dr. Tursz: "Do Prevention and Health Education Have a Place in the Fight Against Violence?" The chairs of each of these committees, along with Anne Tursz, chair of the entire preparatory mission, share with "La santé de l'Homme" the points they found most significant.
