National Multi sectoral action framework

The National Multisectoral Action Framework for TB-Free India, which aimed at building partnerships for convergent actions for a holistic response to TB epidemic, has identified ‘TB Free Workplace’ as one of the six strategic areas for multisectoral action. Engagement of workplace settings towards a ‘TB Free Workplace’ is an effort to complement government initiatives for ending TB among the working population engaged in various occupational settings (formal and informal) through strategic interventions at workplaces. 

Government of India has developed and released a ‘Policy Framework to address Tuberculosis, TB related co-morbidities and HIV in the World of Work in India’ in 2019. The overall goal of this policy framework is to provide an operational framework to all stakeholders in the world of work towards the goal of ending TB by 2025
