This theme reflects APOSHO’s aim and objective of providing an effective platform for the communication and exchange of OSH experience and information, and to encourage fruitful collaboration and cooperation between our members. We seek to achieve OSH excellence through mutually-beneficial and successful collaboration between OSH organisations, and will harness developments in communication technologies to help us achieve this.
