National WSH Campaign
On 15 May 2026, a new WSH Campaign themed – “I Choose Safety. Together We Care.” was launched, marking the next step in Singapore’s WSH journey. Building on the momentum of the past “Reporting Saves Lives” Campaign, this Campaign shifts the focus towards the everyday choices that shape workplace safety and health – the decisions to pause work and assess risks, speak up when something is unsafe, and look out for one another at work.
During his opening remarks at the Campaign launch, Mr Dinesh Vasu Dash, Minister of State for Manpower, called on employers and workers to continue placing safety at the centre of how they lead and work. He also spoke about WSH being a shared responsibility, and reminded everyone that a strong and resilient safety culture anchors on relationships and common values, not just through systems and processes.
In a media release, Mr Abu Bakar Mohd Nor, Chairman of the WSH Council said that the new Campaign theme reflects the importance of strengthening a workplace culture where individuals make conscious safety choices and look out for one another. He added that sustaining Singapore’s WSH progress would require continued commitment from employers, workers and partners to build safer and healthier workplaces.
The Campaign also reinforces the practice “Pause. Check. Make it Safe”, encouraging individuals to pause work to assess and rectify hazards, where necessary. There is now greater emphasis on shaping everyday attitudes, behaviours and habits to foster a more proactive and deeply rooted safety culture across workplaces.
The Campaign is a tripartite initiative supported by the Ministry of Manpower, National Trades Union Congress, and Singapore National Employers Federation.

The Campaign video illustrates how the choices we make in our daily lives carry over into the workplace. It draws a clear connection between everyday decision-making and the actions we take to ensure safety at work.
Centered around four perspectives – an employer, a supervisor, a migrant worker, and a blue-collar worker – the video showcases their journeys as they navigate both personal decisions and workplace safety challenges.
Through these stories, the video offers a nuanced look at workplace safety, showing how individuals at every level of an organisation have the autonomy to make choices that protect themselves and those around them.
