English: Report on CIS activities and accomplishments since the 2010 meeting, pdf 11.4 MB
Mr Roman Litvyakov explained where CIS is positioned in the organizational chart of the ILO and the OSH cluster, and provided information on the current situation concerning CIS information resources and products.
CIS disseminates ILO-OSH information in electronic form and demand for this information remains high. The CISDOC database, International Chemical Safety Cards, Hazards Datasheets on Occupations, as well as 41 ILO Codes of Practices are available on the CIS website.
Mr Litvyakov introduced the new interface for the CISDOC database which was developed last year. The new interface has improved the performance of the database and offers new developmental opportunities.
CIS continues to collaborate with the WHO in the framework of the ICSC project involving over 20 institutions from all over the world. A new ICSC database is being developed. This new database will store the chemical safety cards in different languages all in one place. An internet survey launched by CIS shows that the cards are used by many specialists for training/teaching and research purposes, for the purpose of practical implementation in the workplace, and for the classification/labelling of chemical substances.
Mr Litvyakov revealed that CIS has issued a new electronic product – the e-OSH DVD - which was distributed to all World Congress participants. The DVD contains all the ILO information available on OSH (ILO Instruments, Publications, Events information) in English, French and Spanish.
Mr Litvyakov informed participants that the new edition of the ILO Encyclopaedia is almost ready for publication. The full new Encyclopaedia is available online and is linked to other OSH information resources (including ILO-OSH resources). The new edition will be available on the internet by the end of 2011 or by the beginning of 2012.
A new ILO-CIS Network Google map is available on the CIS website. The map shows the location of all CIS Centres with their contact details.
