  2. Introduction • The development of management systems for OSH • Why OSH-MS? • ILO-OSH 2001 in detail • Profiles of a few national systems • OSH-MS implementation Pavan Baichoo, SafeWork, ILO Geneva

  3. The development of OSH-MS • Liberalisation of trade and economies • Increase in occ. acc.& diseases • Traditional command-control mechanisms inadequate • « Systems » approach pioneered by Edward Demings • Development of standards by ISO Pavan Baichoo, SafeWork, ILO Geneva
