Paragraph text
With respect to all of the above, it is critical that a gendered perspective be adopted in the formulation and implementation of occupational health laws and policies. A gender-based approach recognizes that biological and socio-cultural factors play a significant role in influencing the health of men and women. The disaggregation of health and socio-economic data according to sex is essential in the monitoring and evaluation of all occupational health laws and policies.
