World Day of Safety And Health Observed at Marwah Studios |
New Delhi: “Recognizing the great
challenge that governments, employers, workers and whole societies are facing
worldwide to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, the World Day for Safety and Health
at Work will focus on addressing the outbreak of infectious diseases at work,
in particular, on the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Dr. Sandeep Marwah President of
World Peace Development And Research Foundation and Patron to IFUNA while addressing
the staff of Marwah Studios on Webinar to remind the importance of the day 28th
April.
Concern is growing over the continuing
rise in COVID-19 infections in some parts of the world and the ability to
sustain declining rates in others. Governments, employers, workers and their
organizations face enormous challenges as they try to combat the COVID-19
pandemic and protect safety and health at work. Beyond the immediate crisis,
there are also concerns about resuming activity in a manner that sustains
progress made in suppressing transmission
“The World Day for Safety and Health at
Work will aim to stimulate national tripartite dialogue on safety and health at
work,” added Dr. Marwah. The ILO is using this day to raise awareness on the
adoption of safe practices in workplaces and the role that occupational safety
and health (OSH) services play
