SUPPORTING COMPANIES’ OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH PERFORMANCE: A guide for Employers and Business Membership Organizations on OSH advocacy and services

This publication was prepared by the Labour Administration, Labour Inspection and Occupational Safety and Health Branch (LABADMIN/OSH) and the Bureau for Employers’ Activities (ACT/EMP) of the International Labour Office (ILO). Employers and Business Membership organizations (EBMO) across the world are actively promoting healthy and safe workplaces. They are engaged in tripartite dialogue on national OSH policies, systems and programmes, and provide OSH services such as information, trainings, and audits. This publication presents examples of such initiatives. It also explores a variety of support measures and incentives that have been put in place in many countries to help companies, especially SMEs, manage health and safety at work.
