Engineering and Construction Companies Release Guidance Notes to Address Worker Welfare

See all tags

 Building Responsibly released a series of Guidance Notes developed to help promote worker welfare in the engineering and construction industry...

The Guidance Notes build on the Worker Welfare Principles launched by the collaboration in June 2018 and have been informed by multiple consultations with external stakeholders. 

The Guidance Notes outline some of the key challenges around each Principle and provide a list of good practice options for companies to consider when addressing the challenges. The Principles and accompanying Guidance Notes series constitute the first major effort by engineering and construction companies to establish a common, global baseline for the treatment of workers.
