Today is #WorldDayForSafetyAndHealthAtWork!

An estimated 1.16 to 2.9 million #employees succumb to #work-related #diseases and #accidents per year (#GBDstudy, Pega et al., Takkala et al./@ILO).

The trend is rising, despite #SDG 8.8 calls to promote #safe and #secure #working #environments for all #workers.

Every year on 28 April, we observe the International Day for Safety and Health at Work to raise awareness about the importance of preventing workplace accidents and diseases. Since 2003, the International Labour Organization (ILO) has highlighted the need to create safer work environments worldwide.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀:
Every worker deserves a safe and healthy workplace.
Governments must enforce laws and policies to protect workers.
Employers are responsible for maintaining safe working conditions.
Workers should follow safety practices and participate in prevention efforts.

𝗘𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗸𝘀: New technologies, changing work conditions, and emerging job types bring new challenges, including psychosocial risks that impact mental health and well-being at work.

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲:
“Let's ensure a healthy psychosocial working environment”
This means focusing on how work is organized and managed, ensuring fairness, support, clear roles, and manageable workloads to protect mental health.

𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿:
Safety is everyone’s responsibility. Together, we can stop workplace injuries and illnesses.

Updating my #introduction to celebrate changed balance of life things. I live and walk by the sea in Wollongong, and I’m a gardener. In 2025 I joined up with a small organisation focused on compassionate ways of working in healthcare. I’ve been on here since 2016 and I’m still here, listening and thinking.

I believe we have to work together differently to face the future we’re facing. Life is fragile.
