Nearly one in two workers reports being subject to strong pressure or work overload, while only one in five companies informs its employees about psychosocial risks.

Omissions

• The worker-side figure is confirmed only through an ILO report that cites EU-OSHA (2025) data, not through the original EU-OSHA publication, which could not be retrieved within the search limit.
• The claimed company-side figure ('only one in five companies informs its employees about psychosocial risks') does not appear in any source found and could not be independently verified; the EU-OSHA/ESENER source that would support it was not located.
• Related context: the Eurofound EWCS 2024 shows that 29% of workers say they are 'not very well informed or not at all informed' about psychosocial risks, which is thematically close to but not the same as the claim's 'one in five companies' figure (worker perception vs. enterprise practice).
