Abstract: "Health, Safety and Environment Symposium" is an event of national importance dedicated to the theme of safety and prevention. The Department of Public Health of the University of Naples "Federico II" and the Associazione Europea per la Prevenzione (European Prevention Association) organized this event on October 12th and 13th 2018, in Naples. Exponents of the academic, institutional and entrepreneurial world have compared their own experiences and had the opportunity to debate topics concerning health, environment and safety. Objective is to pursue unique targets in prevention theme and to find common aspects and convergence points beyond different approaches of each 'actor': whatever is his intellectual work, according to their skills, prerogatives and objectives. Intent is to lay the foundations for a permanent and shared comparison, on an annual basis; to set up a meeting between the multi-faceted areas in which are organized the activities in the areas of prevention and safety; to institutionalize a training and social initiative, comprehensive and nonfragmentary, as many previous attempts to create similar occasions have been. Debate is not an end in itself, but a comparison that, over the years, can start an effective growth of the health and safety sectors, in particular in prevention: a meeting that can contribute to innovation. During the event, exponents of the University and institutional fields, representatives of public bodies and business managers and industry professionals, have presented twenty-six unique and original projects. There publications will act as both a portal and an archive for the first one and for the next editions of the national HSE Symposium. In this way it will be possible to create a useful tool for non-professionals, who can find an updated and scientifically valid point of reference for health and safety issues. Graduates and undergraduates, in addition to presenting their project, can get opportunities to improve their skills by comparing with industry professionals and safety supervisors: a very useful way to get started in the world of work with more knowledge and awareness. The design of a "wide-ranging" safety conference, with the participation of all the professionals involved in the sector, was born from the exchange of experiences between professor Umberto Carbone (Department of Public Health of the University of Naples " Federico II "), and the engineer Vincenzo Fuccillo (president of the Associazione Europea per la Prevenzione - European Prevention Association), who also oversaw the realization of this book.
