Dear Partner, Dear Friend,

 

We would like to invite you to our European Partnership Meeting on 16 March 2010 from 10.00h to 13.00h in the European Quarter in Brussels (exact location to be communicated).

 

At this occasion, we would like to:

 

§         present to you our upcoming two-year Healthy Workplaces Campaign on Safe Maintenance 2010-11 as well as

 

§         discuss with you ways of how you can get involved, including on how to become an official Partner of the 2010-11 Healthy Workplaces Campaign.

 

Maintenance – the topic of our upcoming Healthy Workplaces Campaign to be officially launched on 28 April 2010 – happens in virtually all workplaces. It is a process that affects every area of safety and health. Failure to maintain the work environment and poor standards of maintenance are a major cause of occupational diseases (e.g. from exposure to asbestos, biological agents, etc.) and accidents (e.g. inadvertent machinery start up, asphyxiation in confined spaces, slips, trips and falls, etc.).

 

Effective partnerships with key stakeholders are paramount to our Campaign. In the framework of our first Healthy Workplaces Campaign on Risk Assessment 2008-09, we managed to establish many of these partnerships – including with over 40 official Campaign partners. These are pan-European or international organisations and companies (including ETUC and BUSINESSEUROPE) that decided to get substantially involved in the Campaign (see: http://osha.europa.eu/en/campaigns/hw2008/partners ). We intend to build on this success with our forthcoming Campaign on Safe Maintenance 2010-11.

 

You will receive in due time before the event the agenda and all the working documents for this meeting. To give you a first taste of the Campaign, please find attached a copy of our brand new Campaign Guide.

 

We very much hope that you can attend the meeting and that we can count on your support and active involvement in the Healthy Workplaces Campaign on Safe Maintenance in 2010/11.

Topic - Verwertung


Minutes

Urban: Gemeinnützigkeit bzw. Klärung der Förderquote von GS1 in Bezug auf Verwertung von Nöten.
Zeller: Wird gesondert geklärt und in der Kommunikation und weiteren Dokumenten verdeutlicht.
Urban: Standardisierungsbemühungen -> Inwieweit sind Firmen an GS1 Standards gebunden? Ähnlich wie bei DIN Standards? Unterschiedliche Standards für unterschiedliche Anwender (Automobil, Pharma, Lebensmittel)?
Zeller: GS1 hat Marktbeherrschende Stellung. GS1 Standards werden weitgehend in der Pharmaindustrie verwende
Urban: Der Grund hierfür ist die Legitimation von GS1 als Verwerter.
Jovanovic: Das ist normalerweise Konsortiums-intern zu regeln.
Urban: Lediglich die Beziehung der Verbände (VFA, BPI, FAGRO) zu GS1 sollte geklärt werden, um den gewählten Standardisierer zu begründen. Letztendlich sollten drei Argumente FÜR GS1 sprechen:

1. Fachleute mit Tradition
2. Alle drei Technologien abgedeckt (RFID etc...)
3. Verbände haben nichts dagegen

Jovanovic: Bei der Verwerttung stellen sich drei Fragen, die geklärt werden müssen:

1. Was wird verwertet?
2. Wer sind die möglichen Nutzer?
3. Wie könnte ein Verwertungsplan/vereinbarung aussehen?

Urban: Schlussleistung der Kommerzialisierung steht in Frage. Wie ist das sonst bei EU-VRi geregelt?
Jovanovic: Unterschiedlich. Entweder zum Teil mitgefördert oder selbst getragen vom Konsortium. Es sollte zunächst der Demonstrator genauer spezifiziert werden, um die Verwertung angehen zu können.
Urban: Demonstrator am Ende des Projekts aber nicht kommerzialisierbar. Hierzu muss noch weitere Arbeit geleistet werden.
Jovanovic: Passendes Modell für Partner und die heutigen Formen der Verwertung (Lizensierung steht sehr in Frage)
Jovanovic: Schwierigkeit zu trennen was wem gehört. Entscheidung wird deshalb mit Konsortium zusammen getroffen werden müssen und zwar NACH erster Verwertung INNERHALB des Konsortiums. Wie die weitere Verwertung in Bezug auf externe Kunden aussieht (z.B. Lizensierungen oder über Web und Werbung). Eine vielversprechende Möglichkeit ist die Dienstleistung auf Basis von Software (Verlängerte Werkbank für größere Anwender). Erster Schritt wäre also die Verwertung innerhalb des Konsortiums bevor man sich über die externe Verwertung Gedanken macht.
Urban: Es wird sich sehr schnell auf die beiden Verwerter GS1 und EU-VRi beschränken...
Jovanovic: Zwei Punkte

1. Im Verwertungsprozess sollten alle Projektpartner miteinbezogen werden.
2. Die Wege der Verwertung sollten sich nicht an Lizensierung orientieren. Das ist nicht mehr zeitgemäß!

Jovanovic: Hierzu nochmals die drei wichtigen Punkte:

1. Was wird verwertet?
2. Wer sind die möglichen Nutzer?
3. Wie könnte ein Verwertungsplan/vereinbarung aussehen?

Zeller: Auch in unserem Verständnis ist die Verwertung eine projekt-begleitende Aufgabe, die eine vorläufige Verwertungstrategie ständig hinterfragt.

Jovanovic: Die Möglichkeit eines Surveys zur Erfassung der Vewertungswünsche und Verwertungsprobleme im Konsortium besteht ebenfalls.

Zusammen wurde ein Entwurf zum Konsortialvertrag (Verwertungsplan) erstellt.

Nächste Schritte:

• Löscher sendet entwickelten Entwurf an Frau Börner
• 20. März: Deadline für interne redaktionelle Abstimmung der Gesamtvorhabensbeschreibung
• 12. April: Deadline für Zusendung der Entwürfe zur Gesamtvorhabensbeschreibung und den Teilvorhabensbeschreibungen an Frau Börner
