ILO -International Labour Organization publications on occupational safety and health.
This edition January 1998, ISBN 92-2-109552-5.The protection of the worker against sickness, disease and injury arising out of employment is one of the tasks assigned to the ILO in the words of the Preamble of its Constitution.
The development of international standards in the form of Conventions and accompanying Recommendations is one of the main functions of the ILO. These standards, which are adopted by the International Labour Conference, cover labour and social issues. As a package, they constitute the International Labour Code which defines minimum standards in the labour and social fields. Close to 50 per cent of these instruments relate directly or indirectly to occupational safety and health.Catalogue:
