National WSH Campaign
Organised by the Workplace Safety and Health (WSH) Council, and supported by the Ministry of Manpower (MOM), National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) and Singapore National Employers Federation (SNEF), the annual National WSH Campaign sets the stage for the nation’s year-long outreach efforts to promote safety and health in workplaces.Launch of the National WSH Campaign 2025
Launched on 28 April, this year’s Campaign continues with the theme “Reporting Saves Lives” to call on more companies and their workers to deepen a culture of WSH excellence through proactive safety reporting.
Together with our industry associations and partners, the WSH Council emphasises the importance of developing WSH vigilance at all levels, anchored on the 3As of good safety practices:
- Aware – Stay vigilant; be risk-aware
- Assess – Assess whether to pause work
- Act – Act to make it safe
By fostering a workplace culture where reporting unsafe situations is encouraged and acted upon, companies can accelerate hazard identification, reduce risks, and ultimately, save lives.
In a media release, Mr Abu Bakar Mohd Nor, Chairman of the WSH Council said, “A strong safety culture requires everyone – employers, supervisors, and workers – to be constantly alert, responsible, and proactive. Reporting saves lives, and we must continue to empower and encourage everyone on the ground to speak up.” He also urged the industry to remember the 3As of good safety practices and work together to build safer and healthier workplaces across all sectors.
Campaign Resources and Microsite
This year’s Campaign video series tell the stories of workers who are more than the roles they undertake at work - they are also someone’s spouse, child or sibling. When a mishap strikes, it’s not only the worker’s life at risk; it also impacts the lives of their loved ones. Each video revolves around a different high-risk industry, and speaks of the importance of staying vigilant at every level, from workers and supervisors to employers.
Watch the first of our video series titled “Brother” that shows us the impact of a safety incident which the worker, Hasan encountered in the workplace had on his elder brother, Rafiq.
