WORKPLACE HEALTH AND SAFETY

Share
Workplace health and safety is the concept of keeping workers safe in their work
environment. A workplace environment that is safe prevents injuries and
accidents, and promotes the wellness of employees.

Every employer has a legal responsibility to ensure a safe working environment
for their workers. They must encourage employees to adhere to safety procedures,
provide appropriate training, and investigate accidents.

Poor health and safety performance can affect productivity, morale, and
expenses. Employers can be held accountable for faulty safety practices and face
fines and legal penalties. Personal Safety Alarm Employees who suffer from
illness or injury can also have higher insurance premiums, lower job
satisfaction, and lost wages.

A safer workplace reduces injuries, lowers the cost of employee medical claims,
and helps employees recover faster. It also decreases downtime.

and long-term hazards. These experts are also responsible for conducting
research and developing standards for occupational health.

The labor movement has worked to win stronger protections for workers. Unions
and other allies have won more rights to collective bargaining, stronger
protections from hazardous materials, and more.

The NY HERO Act was introduced in New York State to combat current and future
occupational exposure to airborne infectious diseases. While some employers are
still unaware of the legislation's impact, it has led to fewer accidents, and
has cut the costs of worker's compensation claims.

Whether the business operates in a large or small space, a designated health and
safety representative must maintain a safe worksite. Supervisors must ensure the
safety of visitors, students, and employees.
