Analyzing the Consistency of Pakistan's Occupational Safety and Health Legislation with International Labor Standards: A Comprehensive Review

Abstract Pages: 37-43

This research paper critically evaluates the Law of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) in Pakistan, examining its coherence with international labor standards. Through a comprehensive analysis, it investigates the regulatory framework governing workplace safety and health for laborers in Pakistan, juxtaposed against key international benchmarks established by organizations such as the International Labour Organization (ILO). Drawing upon case studies and comparative assessments, the study identifies areas of alignment and divergence, shedding light on challenges in enforcement and compliance. By offering recommendations for policy enhancement, including measures to strengthen enforcement mechanisms and raise awareness among stakeholders, the paper aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse on improving occupational safety and health for laborers in Pakistan. These insights hold significance for advancing labor rights, public health, and sustainable development goals both nationally and globally.
