  • Advancing a safe and healthy working environment and decent work in the tanning and leather industry International Labour Organization (Issuing Body) This ILO brief highlights the significance and challenges of the global tanning and leather industry. This centuries-old industry produces a wide range of goods, from high-end fashion items to everyday consumer products, and plays a crucial role in the global economy, with prominent production hubs in Asia, Europe, and the Americas. The industry faces decent work challenges, including poor working conditions, low wages, and health risks, particularly in developing countries. The ILO emphasizes the need for a multi-faceted approach to address these issues, combining regulatory frameworks, investment in skills and technology, adoption of sustainable practices, and robust social dialogue. The brief also underscores the importance of improving occupational safety and health (OSH) to protect workers from biological, chemical, physical, and ergonomic hazards. Collaboration among governments, employers, and workers is essential to ensure the industry's long-term viability and contribution to decent work and sustainable development.
