Singapore Branch strategy

The IOSH Singapore Branch will promote a safe and healthy world of work, and a culture of making a difference. Our Branch strategy defines the steps that we, as a Branch, need to take. We believe that we can lead the ‘mindset change’ to improve all workplaces to be safer and to develop a sustainable future of health, leading to respect for the workforce at all levels to drive the safety in any organisation and make WORK 2022 a reality.

We will monitor and evaluate our programmes and their impact and provide feedback to members accordingly.
