Messe Düsseldorf Japan Ltd. (= MDJ; Tokyo/Japan, President – Akiko Ohara) will hold JIOSH+W – Japan International Trade Fair for Occupational Safety & Health + Well-being (in Japanese: はたらく現場の環境展) at INTEX OSAKA for the first time from 16 to 19 July 2025. 

All industries are required to push forward the traditional concept of “'occupational safety and health” and aim for “place to work where people can be happy” and “workplace where people can be proud of what they do” under the current trends in which SDGs and well-being are getting even more important. In view of this situation, JIOSH+W will focus on so-called “job sites (factories, construction sites, workplaces etc.)” and showcase for instance not only smart personal protective equipment (PPE) such as safety shoes, gloves, helmets, protective goggles and clothing, but also functional and fashionable workwear, wearable devices to measure health conditions, and exoskeletons to help reduce workloads. The main exhibits of JIOSH+W will be products, technologies and services which create a working environment where everyone can work in good health and feel fulfilled & proud of his work.
