The area of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) has become a
subject of improving significance over the last 30 years. Initially
dealing with issues in market and risks associated with mechanical
or technical injury, the Occupational Safety and Health field has
extended to almost every environment, from the office to the
aircraft, as well as a clinical setting. Beyond the cost savings,
improved safety has many beneficial effects. In one recent survey,
95 percent of business executives reported that workplace safety
has a positive impact on a company's financial performance.
Typically, companies that implement a comprehensive safety and
health program report that employee morale improves, leading to
increases in productivity, competitiveness, and profits. This text
separates into sections. The first section involves how safety
affects the bottom line. Section 2 looks at the various management
systems. The third section follows with areas of safety
engineering, requirements and case study analysis. Our task, as
business leaders, is to continue to reduce risk, secure our workers
and increase our safety lifestyle. Demonstrating the value of
safety to management is often a task because the revenue (ROI) can
be complicated to evaluate. Safety needs to be inserted naturally
into the entire working environment, starting at the top level.
Safety factors are something you want to be proactive with, not
reactive. Creating a safety program will eventually help your
organization's bottom line.
