SADC is a regional economic community comprising 15 member states: Angola, Botswana, Democratic Republic of Congo, Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Seychelles, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe [1]. Even in the presence of global OHS instruments by the International Labour Organization (ILO) that guide all countries in the promotion of workplace health and safety and in managing OHS programmes, including No. 81 (Labour inspection), No. 155 (Occupational safety and health), No. 161 (Occupational health services), No. 170 (Chemical safety) and No. 174 (Prevention of major industrial accidents), many SADC member states lack a comprehensive OHS policy and the resources to implement it 2022-08-12T09:52:17Z 2022-08-12T09:52:17Z 2017-12-02 Article 1471-8405 0962-7480 doi.org/10.1093/occmed/kqx071 http://hdl.handle.net/11408/5111 en Occupational Medicine;Vol. 67, Issue 8;Pages 590 – 592 open Oxford University Press |
