VIDAL, Ángel. From ugly duckling to swan: the way forward for micro and small enterprises in occupational health and safety. Med. segur. trab. [online]. 2013, vol.59, suppl.1, pp.55-59. ISSN 1989-7790.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0465-546X2013000500012.

When in April 2011 we got our first European Award for Best Practices in Campaign on Safe Maintenance, the most asked question was not about the details of our enterprises coordination model but how a micro establishment in Spain had managed to win a European award in Health and Safety. The answer that we have given is an explanation of our simple model of work. To our surprise turned out to be winning again. We propose a model of risk prevention to implement in small businesses. These enterprises are exposed to higher risks due to scarce resources. We aim to achieve excellent results despite limited financial resources.

Palabras clave : Micro enterprises; Occupational Health and Safety.
