THE call by Human Resources Minister M. Kulasegaran for zero accidents in the workplace and occupational safety and health (OSH) measures to be strictly practised in all sectors of industry should be lauded. After all, zero accidents in the workplace would ensure higher productivity of workers and hence improve company profits.

The Building and Wood Workers’ International-Malaysia Liaison Council (BWI-MLC) fully supports the Vision Zero Malaysia campaign, which emulates the global initiative introduced in 2017 by the International Social Security Association to prevent accidents, harm and diseases at work. The campaign aims to engage companies worldwide to systematically cut down on occupational accidents and diseases by investing in a healthy and motivated workforce.
