Five Reasons to Work Safe Today – Picture This

What’s wrong in this picture? There is a worker trying to put a spotlight on the wall but he is not paying the necessary attention to how he is doing it, he is not wearing any fall protection and the walking space on the plank is limited and awkward which makes any movement dangerous.

Workplace safety is crucial, regardless of a business, its size or its industry. Without the proper workplace safety.

The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) reported 5,190 employees were killed on the job in 2016. Meanwhile, OSHA has partnered with companies nationwide to find the best ways to limit workplace dangers. To date, OSHA and its partners have been successful in their workplace safety efforts, reducing the average number of worker deaths per day from 38 in 1970 to 14 in 2016.

Workplace safety requires ongoing collaboration between managers and employees across a company. Together, managers and employees can analyze on-the-job dangers and determine the best ways to eliminate such problems. They also can brainstorm ways to simultaneously reduce on-the-job risks and bolster workplace productivity.
