More Information About this Project
Project Needs and Beneficiaries
Occupational health & safety (OHS) is one of the key issues encountered by migrant workers working in the cities of Southern China. The lack of education & training increases the risk of the workers in suffering from work accidents & occupational disease. By producing education materials, providing participatory OHS training and involving workers in improving their work environment, workers will be able to learn more to secure their health at work.
Activities
We will produce education materials on OHS & distribute to workers. This will help increase the awareness of OHS issues in some high risk industries.We will also advocate workers to participate in OHS training & improvement.
