SAWO 2026: OSH in the Era of Hybrid and Digital Threats
The International Fair for Occupational Safety, Fire Fighting, and Rescue SAWO, scheduled for April 14–16, 2026, is the largest event of its kind in Central and Eastern Europe. This year's edition is record-breaking: over 300 exhibitors from 30 countries will gather at MTP Poznań EXPO.
Influencer Zone and Practical Workshops
Modern OSH (Occupational Safety and Health) requires a new form of communication, which is why the Influencer Zone, led by Artur Lipowicz, is becoming the heart of the event. Discussion panels will focus on ergonomics, chemistry, and energy, moving away from theoretical lectures in favor of a dynamic exchange of experiences. Simultaneously, as part of the workshops organized by OSPSBHP and the Culture of Safety Foundation, participants will undergo practical training in the selection of personal protective equipment.

From "Vision Zero" to War Threats
The SAWO 2026 conference program addresses the most current geopolitical and social challenges. Experts from Safety Project will discuss the security of workplaces in the era of hybrid and war threats, and the National Labor Inspectorate will present the "Vision Zero" strategy, which focuses on real employee engagement in improving working conditions. This is supplemented by an analysis of well-being and the impact of climate change and digitalization on the labor market, conducted by CIOP-PIB.
Safety Train: Networking on the Move
On April 13, special "Safety Train" sets will depart from Lublin, Olsztyn, Wrocław, and Szczecin. This is a mobile educational space managed by OSPSBHP, where experts and practitioners integrate and exchange knowledge even before arriving at the fairgrounds.

Synergy with SECUREX and INSTALACJE
The SAWO fair is held as part of a block that also includes the SECUREX and INSTALACJE events. This combination guarantees access to a full spectrum of knowledge regarding technical security, fire protection, and building installations in one place. For professionals, admission to the event is free following prior online registration.
