It is my great pleasure and honor to invite you to XVIII World Congress on Safety and Health at Work, which will be held in Seoul, Korea, from June 29 to July 2, 2008. The three Congress organizers, the International Labour Organization (ILO), the International Social Security Association (ISSA), and the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency (KOSHA), are committed to ensuring the success of the World Congress. Still, the success of the World Congress ultimately depends on your participation and contribution. We therefore hope to meet you at this important world event. The World Congress is a unique opportunity for decision-makers, safety and health professionals, employers' and workers' representatives and social security experts to learn from each other and exchange information with their peers from around the world. As safety and health professionals, we all possess extremely valuable information, which we can share in order to make a difference in organizations, communities, society and in the world at large. For the first time in the history of the World Congress, a Safety and Health summit will be held just prior to the Congress. We will be inviting ministers responsible for labour and for safety and health, leaders of industry, high-level representatives from employers' and workers' organizations, social security representatives as well as leading occupational safety and health specialists from around the world with a view to placing safety and health at work high on the world agenda. It is our sincere wish that the World Congress in Seoul will be highly meaningful for professionals in the occupational safety and health fields, as they share their precious experience and technical know-how. I hope all of us can join together in a dynamic season in Seoul, Korea, in June, 2008. I wish all of you continuing health and happiness. Thank you |
