World Day for Safety and Health at Work
This March issue is connected to World Day for Safety and Health at Work, on April 28. Each year, this observance underscores the importance of recognizing that a safe and healthy working environment is not merely an operational requirement but a fundamental human right. It serves as a celebration of the progress made but also a critical platform for discussing the practicalities of implementing this right in diverse work environments.
