It's on the minds of everyone. From management to skilled labor, both employers and employees alike are concerned with safety in the workplace. We have guidelines that have been set down from OSHA to assist us in our endeavor to keep the workplace safe and minimize the risk that workers face day-in and day-out. And yet, no matter how we strive to keep the work environment safe, accidents happen all too often; no matter how minor or major they are, any accident is one accident too many.
Learning Objectives: Understand the direct & indirect costs of lack of safety in the workplace, develop awareness of accident causes, define safety responsibilities, understand risk factors to violence in the workplace, apply good safety practices and implement prevention strategies. |
