Print

THURSDAY, 17 MARCH – Centre for Occupational Safety and Health (PKKP) Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) is conducting talks on occupational safety and health (OSH) awareness in schools around Kota Kinabalu.

According to a statement issued by PKKP, the talks are important for schools as teachers and students spend at least six hours in schools, thus the need to know better on matters pertaining to their safety and health within their surroundings.

The statement also added that OSH programmes in schools are not new as the government had introduced some programmes based on safety and health in the School Health Programme (RKS) since 1967 and Safe School Project in 2002.

The concept of OSH in schools is more holistic and supported by OSHA legislative needs, 1994.

Schools that are interested to organise such talk are welcome to get in touch with the Director of PKKP, Associate Professor Dr. Shamsul Bahari Shamsudin at 088-320000 ext. 1661 or 013-8888004 or email at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
