Geschreven op 21-4-2010 - Erik van Erne. Geplaatst in Agenda, Gezondheid
World Day for Safety and Health at Work is an international annual campaign to promote safe, healthy and decent work. It is held yearly on 28 April.
Since 2003, the International Labour Organization (ILO) observes World Day stressing the prevention of accidents and illnesses at work, capitalizing on its traditional strengths of tripartism and social dialogue.
This celebration is an integral part of the Global Strategy on Occupational Safety and Health of the ILO, as documented in the Conclusions of the International Labour Conference in June 2003. One of the main pillars of the Global Strategy is advocacy, and World Day for Safety and Health at Work is a significant tool to raise awareness about how to make work safe and healthy and the need to raise the political profile of occupational safety and health. 28 of April is also a day which the world’s trade union movement has long associated with commemorating victims of occupational accidents and diseases.
The ILO supports organizations and institutions by making its materials available for downloading from the Internet and by encouraging its use.
