ABOUT COSH

The Conference and Exhibition on Occupational, Safety and Health (COSH) is an annual event organised by NIOSH in its aim to discuss current issues and challenges in occupational safety and health. We organise this professional and high quality conference across many disciplines with the participation of prominent quest speakers and delegates from throughout the region as well as Europe, U.S.A and Japan. Since its inception in 1998, the conference had served as the premiere platform for OSH professionals in Malaysia to share and update their OSH knowledge and skills to meet the dynamic changes in the Malaysian working environment. COSH brings together regulators, practitioners, expert, researchers and suppliers towards a common aspiration which is to achieve a safer and healthier workplace for all.
