The focus of the 5 th conference organized by the EUROSHNET
network will be on the need to create conditions for improving the
quality of working life in a rapidly changing world: How can standardization, testing and certification contribute? Which pitfalls should
be avoided?
With your support and cooperation we shall find ways to complete
the jigsaw puzzle of the numerous – and sometimes contradictory –
requirements that we must face in the next 10 years.
As the Director of INSHT, it will be my great pleasure to welcome
you to the beautiful city of Seville to try and meet that challenge.

The hotel is located at the shores of the Guadalquivir and offers

Seville is the capital city of Andalusia. Located in the South of
Spain, it is one of the largest Spanish cities and occupies the
valley of the Guadalquivir River.
Seville’s rich history has left the city stuffed with innumerable
monuments like the awesome cathedral, the third largest in the
world, the Giralda tower, the wonderful palace of the Royal
Alcázar, the magical Barrio of Santa Cruz with its narrow streets,
or the Maestranza bullfighting ring. The city of Seville is famous
worldwide for its culture, monuments, traditions, artistic heritage
and passion for Flamenco but what it’s essentially famous for is its
own living self.
The average maximum temperature in October in Seville is 25˚C.
