Work improvement programmes
The DOSH has leveraged participatory training methods
to extend the coverage of its OSH services to informal
economy workplaces. These methods are encompassed
in three ILO work-improvement programmes that
the DOSH has adopted– i) Work Improvement for
Safe Home (WISH) for home workers; ii) Work
Improvement in Small Construction Sites (WISCON);
and iii) Work Improvement in Neighbourhood
Development (WIND) for farmers. These programmes
were adopted with technical assistance from the ILO's
Informal Economy, Employment and Poverty Reduction
Project (2004–2006).
