An average person spends at least 92 120 hours working in their lifetime based on about 50 years work! With so many hours spent working, it is essential to be in an environment where your Health and Safety are of paramount importance.
Imagine being admitted to hospital and being given the wrong medication because the charts are not properly filled out by the previous shift… bottles containing hazardous liquids which are not labelled, constant exposure to radiation, and the list can go on and on across all industries.
Countries have Health and Safety legislation to protect both the worker and business owners, but the question is, do you have the best knowledge and skills to improve safety at work?
There are many business benefits in having a good system in place, which include reducing the number of working days lost due to illness and injury, motivating workers and boosting productivity, protecting the company reputation and even shielding the company from potential legal action and reducing insurance premiums.
A safety culture is characterised by shared core values and goals with non-punitive responses to adverse events and errors. Education and training is essential and requires a strong, committed leadership along with engagement and empowerment of all employees.
