Construction Occupational Safety and Health (COSH) Training

In coordination with DOLE Regional Office IX and COSHEMAP, Inc. Construction Safety & Health Training (COSH) was conducted in Zamboanga City.

One of the core programs and services of OSHC is advocacy through learning sessions and trainings as mandated to prevent workplace accidents and occupational illnesses.

Department Order No. 13 signed in 1998 mandates the OSH requirements for the Construction Industry. Site safety officers play key roles in the implementation of effective OSH programs at the work sites and they are the primary targets of this 40-hours (5 Days) training.

During the 5 days training, OSHC REU 9 assisted and monitored the flow of activities ensuring smooth facilitation of the participants. OSHC REU 9 Focal also lectured on Industrial Hygiene and Occupational Health.
