With an urgency to save and create jobs for Indonesia to emerge from the COVID-19 crisis stronger and productive, the ILO and its partners launch the “Enhancing COVID-19 Prevention at and through Workplaces” project with the funding support of the Government of Japan. The project aims at assisting business re-opening and continuation by helping enhance COVID-19 prevention measures at and through workplaces. OSH doctors will advise infection risk reduction at 1,500 workplaces using risk assessment tools that the ILO and the IDKI developed for the project.
This project will also strengthen the capacities of relevant government officials, enterprises, Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) professionals, and workers to respond to today’s COVID-19 pandemic and future public health crises, and to address other OSH challenges.
The project will be implemented until March 2022 in collaboration with the Indonesia Occupational Doctors Association (IDKI), the Ministry of Manpower, Indonesia Employers’ Association (APINDO) and trade union confederations.
