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. The 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. One of the main pillars of the
Global Strategy is advocacy, the World Day for Safety and Health at Work is a significant tool to raise awareness of how to make work safe and healthy and of
the need to raise the political profile of occupational safety and health.28
April is also the International Commemoration Day for Dead and Injured Workers
organized worldwide by the trade union movement since 1996. Each of us is responsible
for stopping deaths and injuries on the job.
The annual World Day for
Safety and Health at Work on 28 April promote the prevention of occupational
accidents and diseases globally. It is an awareness-raising campaign intended
to focus international attention on the magnitude of the problem and on how
promoting and creating a safety and health culture can help reduce the number of
work-related deaths and injuries. We have learned from the past crisis that
workplaces can be of vital importance to prevent and control outbreaks.
Adequate safety and health measures at work can play a crucial role in
containing the spread of the disease, while protecting workers and society.
Governments, employers and workers all have a role to play in tackling COVID-19
crisis and their collaboration is key.
