OSHC Learning Academy

The Occupational Safety and Health (OSHC) was established through Executive Order No. 307, signed by the late President Corazon C. Aquino, on November 4, 1987.

Based on its mandate, the OSHC champions the cause of work safety and health in the Philippines.

The OSHC is the front-runner of two much-awaited events on OSH. Held every two years, the Gawad Kaligtasan at Kasalusugan (GKK) and the National Occupational Safety and Health (NOSH) Congress serve as centerpiece programs on increasing awareness and strengthening commitment for safe and healthier workplaces nationwide.

The GKK is a national award given by DOLE to companies and individuals with outstanding achievements on work safety and health while the NOSH Congress provides a venue for the exchange of experiences and new trends on OSH.

The services of the OSHC cover the preventive aspects of occupational safety and health both public and private workplaces. As the authority on OSH, the OSHC fulfills its mission through research, training, information dissemination, and technical services. The OSHC has a staff of specialists in various fields of OSH and draws on national and foreign expertise when needed.

The management is headed by the Executive Director who oversees the planning, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of OSHC’s operations. Programs are carried out through the following work centers: Office of the Executive Director (OED), Environment Control Division (ECD), Health Control Division (HCD), Safety Control Division (SCD), Training and Public Information Division (TPID), and the Finance and Administrative Division (FAD).
