Investment or cost? OSH for Micro, Small & Medium-Sized Enterprises

Symposium

Talk Description

If your workplace employs 249 or less workers, then it's categorised as a micro, small & medium-sized enterprise (MSME). MSMEs represent about 90% of businesses and more than 50% of employment worldwide (Worldbank.org). When it comes to engaging with OSH, though, MSMEs worldwide demonstrate lower formality levels, lower awareness, and lower compliance with OSH standards. 

This symposium covers how to promote OSH management systems in MSMEs and highlights good practices with practical takeaways.
