World Day for Safety and Health at Work 2016

Since 2003, the International Labour Organization (ILO) observes World Day for Safety and Health at Work on 28 April, stressing the prevention of accidents and illnesses at work, capitalizing on its traditional strengths of tripartism and social dialogue. This year, under the theme "Emerging risks and new patterns of prevention in a changing world of work" the day will draw attention on the current global challenges and the new context of occupational safety and health practice.
