Workplace Health and Safety

If making workplace health and safety a cornerstone strategy sounds a little – well – mundane – it’s time to take a closer look at the numbers and the findings. Workplace injuries are indicative of breakdowns in basic processes and procedures that threaten the efficiency and financial health of an organization.
Is making safety a top priority, a move that’s important only to high-risk, global companies with billions of dollars at stake?
The answer is a resounding no.
Internal analysis within many organizations reveals that divisions, branches and departments that maintain the best safety records also achieve the highest productivity, maintain the most positive morale, and ultimately deliver the greatest profit margins.
