About the Seminar
Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) focuses primarily on protecting workers in the workplace from accidents, injuries, and exposure to harmful substances. While accidents can happen at any time, the employer must ensure that they take steps to reduce the risk of incidents and maintain a safe working environment. ILO standards on occupational safety and health provide essential tools for governments, employers and workers to establish such practices and ensure maximum safety at work.
The seminar aims to critically engage with the various aspects that arise when dealing with OSH. It seeks to involve all the stakeholders and delineate their roles for the effective implementation of internationally recognised OSH norms.
