Discussion Points:

  • Most owners consider health and safety to be primarily the responsibility of the employees themselves and unfortunately without access to any kind of formal training on OSH, the overall awareness levels in this sector are low. No wonder a very high incidence of chronic health problems amongst workers is reported from India.
  • It is imperative upon all key stakeholders to effectively communicate the cost-benefit ratio of adopting best practices in OSH to various industries.
  • Some of the factors that can motivate organizations to invest in OSH best practices are: increase in productivity through availability of a healthy workforce; reputation enhancement; adherence to local laws and regulations and hence avoidance of punitive action from government bodies; and increased customer satisfaction.
