Slovenia takes up Presidency of the Council of the EU

01/07/2021

Slovenia takes over the Council Presidency from Portugal on 1 July. Recovery and resilience are at the heart of the new programme, using lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic, and the green and digital transition, to build a healthier and more secure and stable EU.

Occupational safety and health –– in particular in relation to COVID-19, carcinogens and work-life balance –– is the focus of a series of events during Slovenia’s 6-month term.
