As climate change intensifies, workers around the globe find themselves at increased risk of exposure to hazards such as excessive heat, ultraviolet radiation, extreme weather events, air pollution, vector-borne diseases and agrochemicals.
The aim of this global event is to explore the impacts of climate change on workers’ safety and health, bringing attention to the global health threat workers are currently facing.
On this occasion, the International Labour Organization (ILO) will launch a NEW global report on “Ensuring safety and health at work in a changing climate”.
