Good to know! 💡 Do you know who to contact when workplace issues arise?

While both units protect workers in Trinidad and Tobago, they handle completely different areas:
🏢 OSHA Inspectorate Unit: Handles all safety, health, and hazard concerns in the workplace.
💼 Labour Inspectorate Unit: Handles Minimum Wage, Maternity Protection, and Child Labour Protection.
Save this post for the exact contact numbers, emails and office locations for both units! 📲👇

OSHA stands firm behind the call to End Child Labour.
WORLD DAY AGAINST CHILD LABOUR
Every Child Deserves a Safe Childhood
Protect Children. Promote Education. End Child Labour.

Today on World Day Against Child Labour, Sen. the Hon. Leroy Baptiste joins the International Labour Organization's global campaign to prevent and eliminate Child Labour!

Our collective and coordinated partnerships with local and international organisations have strengthened our efforts to address child labour here at 'home' such as:

✅Development of Draft Child Labour Policy in
collaboration with the International Labour
Organization - Caribbean Office
✅Task Team operations effected to address
reports
✅Specialised Training of Labour Inspectors to
strengthen resolution efforts
✅Partnership with Child Labour ambassadors and
schools for enhanced advocacy, detection and
support systems within schools
✅Development of work lists to protect children
under age 18 from hazardous work
✅Mounting of public awareness initiatives to
continue calls for public prevention, detection
and reporting and;
✅ Collaborations with key stakeholders to
support families

Remember it takes a village to raise a child and a nation to protect them, let's all play our roles and act now to ensure that our children can enjoy fair play, and adults can enjoy decent work opportunities.
