Tripartite Oversight Committee on Workplace Safety and Health 2017-2020 Report

Seven in ten Singapore residents are engaged in the workforce. On average, workers in Singapore spend nine hours a day at work. This makes the workplace an important setting to have in place programmes and initiatives that support safety and health, so as to benefit a large segment of the population.

The Tripartite Oversight Committee (TOC) on Workplace Health was set up in 2014 to help workers achieve wellbeing by adopting a holistic approach to manage their safety and health. In its first term (2014 – 2017), the TOC raised the awareness of safety and health holistically, impacted the overall health of hard-to-reach mature workers, and increased the adoption of healthier behaviours among workers in business clusters. In its second term (2017 – 2020), the TOC expanded upon the work done in the previous term to incorporate workplace safety and hence was renamed the Tripartite Oversight Committee on Safety and Health.
