How can companies deal with problematic substance use? What are suitable preventive measures? Experts will talk about this at a symposium in the ÖGB and Trade Union House in Vienna.

340,000 people marched along Vienna's Ringstrasse on June 8, 2024. They were all part of the Rainbow Parade, which took place for the 28th time . Lesbians, gays, bisexuals, heterosexuals, trans, cis, inter- and queer people demonstrated for acceptance, respect and equal rights in Austria, Europe and around the world.

At the symposium on the topic of "Inclusion could be easy", the focus was on people with disabilities. With their different skills, strengths and needs, they hold more potential for the world of work than is currently being used.

On 13 March 2024, the trade unions vida and GPA, the Vienna Chamber of Labour (AK) and the WEISSER RING association organised their international violence prevention conference "Tatort Arbeitsplatz" for the 15th time.
