Levi Strauss released a guidebook

USA: Leading American clothing company Levi Strauss, together with the Evidence Project/Meridian Group International Inc., has released a guidebook titled “Managing Health at the Workplace: A Guidebook” to help factories improve worker health and manage their health activities as a basic management function.

The guidebook consists of industry experience on how to improve the workplace health services. It also highlights the importance of the health of women workers and their access to reproductive health and family planning services. Also, it mentions that nurses, often under-utilized, would be better viewed as a strategic resource to promote good health, not just treat injuries.
