C4.3.c. Where can I find guidance on the international standards for occupational safety and health?

The MLC, 2006 mentions a number of guidelines on OSH that should be considered and are relevant. These are available on the ILO’s SAFEWORK website at: http://www.ilo.org/safework/lang–en/index.htm.

In October 2014 an international tripartite meeting of experts met to adopt Guidelines for implementing the occupational safety and health provisions of the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 70 .

In addition many countries have developed laws and regulations on this matter and their texts may be useful.
