The joint ILO/WHO Global Programme for the Elimination of Silicosis (GPES) is being implemented by the two agencies with a view to eliminating this occupational disease in the world. The GPES encourages countries to establish National Programmes for the Elimination of Silicosis (NPES) to engage government, national employers’ and workers’ organizations, as well as other partners concerned in its active implementation.
