SMEEU Sharing on OHS Practices

Background In 2011 Singapore amended the Workplace Safety and Health Act (WSH Act) to: 1.extend the Act to all workplaces instead just specific types of workplaces and factories 2.extend the responsibilities of work safety to all individuals rather than confining to the supervisors, managers and companies

Major Challenges Major challenges in enforcement and compliance? To ensure fairness in the investigation and awarding of penalties. Regular enforcement needed Management of migrant workers with regards to HSE due to cultural and linguistic diversity. More effort put in the educating the workforce through training.

Improvement to OHS SMEEU leaders sit in the National Workforce Safety Council. SMEEU representatives in the HSE Investigation Teams and Grievance Committee of companies to ensure fair treatment. Union representation in the Yard HSE Committee Comfortable dormitories and facilities for the welfare of migrant workers

Better Working and Living Conditions for Foreign Workers 1.Unions and companies worked together to provide a better working and living conditions for foreign workers. 2.The Integrated yard at Tuas is a good example. Host 9000 workers Good accommodation Gym Entertainment Centre Medical Centre Washing facilities Football court etc

Better Working and Living Conditions for Foreign Workers High standards of Health, Safety and Environment (HSE). Well-equipped medical centre.
