| contents | Safety and health in construction: an ILO code of practice The construction sector is of strategic importance to many Member States of the ILO, in view of its job creation potential and linkages with other economic sectors. At the same time, the sector experiences many and diverse occupational safety and health hazards and risks. In February 2022, a meeting of experts adopted a revised ILO code of practice on safety and health in construction. Based on international labour standards and sectoral guidelines and tools, this revised code provides a comprehensive and practical advice on how governments, employers, workers and their representatives should work together to eliminate, reduce and control all major hazards and risks in view of the changes in working practices and conditions in the construction sector. The code promotes the implementation of OSH management systems as well as cooperation between employers and workers and their representatives. It promotes a preventative safety and health culture in which the right to a safe and healthy working environment is respected throughout the construction project life cycle. ILO, Revised ed. ISBN 9789220368855,9789220368848 publication.encyclopediaEntry |
