Joint ILO-EU project to improve knowledge base and safety and health in global supply chains to support G20 work on safer workplaces

This Project is proposing to undertake pioneering work on OSH improvements in supply chains which requires in-depth understanding of the situation in a given context. This explains the heavy investment on developing a solid conceptual framework for investigation and gaining greater clarity regarding potential operational implications. To this end, the ILO proposes to work with a reputed international research partner through a sub-contracting arrangement in order to do background research, define the methodology and carry out the analytical work. Also, three case studies will be commissioned in order to identify the main issues and underpinning causes and processes: one case study per country, covering each one sector. A high-level meeting will be convened in Geneva or Brussels which will bring together G20 members as well as other relevant partners at international level to discuss the findings of the case studies.
