External networks
Our aim is to forge and maintain
constructive links with networks across the world, covering:
- industry
- professional bodies
- employers
- workers
- academia
- research.
We want to share information and learning, so we can all work
more effectively, both individually and collectively, for a world
of work that's safe, healthy and sustainable. We've established
links with many other organisations around the world, in some
cases, helping form broader networks and providing ongoing
support.
