Decent work in a changing world

Climate change and new technology are reshaping workplace risks. Workers face fresh challenges to their safety and wellbeing.

Our side event at the Doha summit examines how occupational safety and health supports the decent work agenda. We'll explore emerging threats and practical solutions, including:

• how climate change impacts on workers in vulnerable sectors and regions
• digital technology opportunities and risks for workplace safety
• policy responses to protect workers from new hazards
• International Labour Organization (ILO) occupational safety and health conventions C155 and C187 in promoting decent work
• support for vulnerable workers and preventing modern slavery.

This event is open to anyone from an accredited organisation at the Second World Summit for Social Development.
