Our publications. In-depth insight into our work towards the Sustainable Development Goals.

The International Labour Organization (ILO) Decent Work Team and Office for the Caribbean has partnered with AMCHAM T&T to develop a new guidebook that supports Caribbean Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to achieve their goals for occupational health and safety in the workplace. The guidebook, Safety Made Simple: A Practical Guide to Protecting Your People, Your Business, and Your Bottom Line, is a timely, accessible and much-needed resource designed specifically to meet the need of SMEs operating in the Caribbean. Authored by Ria Sooknarine CMIOSH SMP, the guide breaks down the complexities of occupational safety and health into clear, practical steps that any small or medium enterprise can apply. The result is a free and accessible tool that makes safer workplaces achievable, sustainable, and within reach for every business, no matter the size. This guidebook will make a real difference — supporting employers and workers alike, improving productivity, reducing risk, and helping Caribbean businesses thrive through safer, more structured operations.See the digital download below, and email mark.thomas@un.org to request printed hard copies.
