Together, we're driving progress towards Poverty Alleviation (SDG #1), Health and Well-Being (SDG #3), and Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG #8) amongst others. Elevating Worker Welfare standards and ensuring top-notch Health Care and Safety for all is our priority.   Occupational safety and health play vital roles in achieving a decent labour-standard for all individuals, as outlined in UN SDG #8. Target 8.8 of Goal #8 has underscored the importance of occupational safety and health as a sustainable development priority. It emphasizes the need for collective efforts to protect labour rights and promote a safe and secure working environment for all workers, especially women harvesters, and those differently abled factory-staff."   An integral component of our social welfare system, our employee safety benefits align perfectly with target 1.3 of Goal #1 to ensure substantial protection for the poor and vulnerable. Our initiatives strive to achieve a wide health coverage which would facilitate access to quality healthcare services, as reaffirmed under target 3.8 of UN SDG #3. In celebrating World Health & Safety Day, we first ask ourselves what it is to be an ethical employer and how best we can safeguard our employees. In compliance with UN SDGs, our provision of a safe and happy working environment is one that’s conducive for all employees. #WorldDayforHealthandSafety #WorldDayforHealthandSafety2024 #health #safety #sustainablefuture #Bogawantalawa #ceylontea #sustainableliving #tealovers #TeaMastery #tealife #sustainablebrand #GoldenValleyofCeylon #teacup #teaaddict #teaculture #srilanka #ceylontoday #teaceremony #Bogawantalawatea #teacultureoftheworld #sustainablebusiness #teaexport #teatrade #teatrails #earthweek #weekend #preservation #climate #worldclimate #sustainabilitygoals #unsdg2030
