 INTRODUCTION
As an employer, it is your responsibility to maintain a safe and healthy
workplace. A safety and health management system, or safety program, can help
you focus your efforts at improving your work environment. Whatever you call
it, your plan describes what the people in your organization do to prevent
injuries and illnesses at your workplace. Your organization will have its own
unique system, reflecting your way of doing business, the hazards of your work,
and how you manage the safety and health of your employees.

If you manage a small business in a low-risk industry, your system may simply
involve listening to your employees' concerns and responding to them.
A large business in a hazardous industry may have notebooks full of written
policies and procedures and a full-time safety director.
What's most important is that your system works for your organization. It's up to
you to decide how best to operate a safe and healthy workplace, and to put your
plan into practice.

Occupational health and safety is a discipline with a broad scope involving

many specialized fields. In its broadest sense, it should aim at:
a) The promotion and maintenance of the highest degree of physical, mental and
social well-being of workers in all occupations.
b) The prevention among workers of adverse effects on health caused by their
working conditions.
c) The protection of workers in their employment from risks resulting from
factors adverse to health.
d) The placing and maintenance of workers in an occupational environment
adapted to physical and mental needs.
e) The adaptation of work to humans.
Successful occupational health and safety practice requires the collaboration and

3
participation of both employers and workers in health and safety programmes,
and involves the consideration of issues relating to occupational medicine,
industrial hygiene, toxicology, education, engineering safety, ergonomics,
psychology, etc.
Occupational health issues are often given less attention than occupational safety
issues because the former are generally more difficult to confront. However,
when health is addressed, so is safety, because a healthy workplace is by
definition also a safe workplace. The converse, though, may not be true - a so-
called safe workplace is not necessarily also a healthy workplace. The important
point is that issues of both health and safety must be addressed in every
workplace.

Health of the workers:

Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not
merely the absence of diseases. It‟s a positive and dynamic concept which
means something more than the absence of illness.
Safety of the workers:
Safety is a measures or techniques implemented to reduce the risk of injury, loss
and danger to persons, property or the environment in any facility or place
involving the manufacturing, producing and processing of goods or
merchandise.

Employee health and safety is across-disciplinary area concerned with

protecting the safety, health and welf are of people engaged in work or
employment. The goal of all occupational health and safety programs is to foster
a safe work environment.

As a secondary effect, it may also protect co-workers, family members,

employers, customers, suppliers, nearby communities, and other members of the

4
public who are impacted by the workplace environment. It may involve
interactions among many subject areas, including occupational medicine,
occupational (or industrial) hygiene, public health, safety engineering,
chemistry, health physics

Due to rapid industrialization, industrial workers are exposed to several types of

hazards and accidents. Every year lakhs of workers are injured due to
mechanical, chemical, electrical and radiation hazards and it leads to partial or
total disablement. So in recent years, greater attention is given to health and
safety due to pressure from government, trade unions, labour laws and
awareness of employers.

The efficiency of workers depends to a great extends on the environment in

which the work. Work environment consists of all the factors, which act and
react on the body and mind of an employee. The primary aim is to create an
environment, which ensures the greatest ease of work and removes all causes of
worries.

called safe workplace is not necessarily also a healthy workplace. The important
point is that issues of both health and safety must be addressed in every
workplace.
Work plays a central role in people's lives, since most workers spend at least
eight hours a day in the workplace, whether it is on a plantation, in an office,
factory, etc. Therefore, work environments should be safe and healthy.
Unfortunately some employers assume little responsibility for the protection of
workers' health and safety. In fact, some employers do not even know that they
have the moral and often legal responsibility to protect workers.

Importance of management commitment on health and safety:
In order to develop a successful health and safety programme, it is essential that
there be strong management commitment and strong worker participation in the
effort to create and maintain a safe and healthy workplace. An effective
management addresses all work-related hazards, not only those covered by
government standards.
All levels of management must make health and safety a priority. They must
communicate this by going out into the worksite to talk with workers about their
concerns and to observe work procedures and equipment. In each workplace, the
lines of responsibility from top to bottom need to be clear, and workers should
know who is responsible for different health and safety issues.

Importance of training:
Workers often experience work-related health problems and do not realize that
the problems are related to their work, particularly when an occupational
disease, for example, is in the early stages. Besides the other more obvious
benefits of training, such as skills development, hazard recognition, etc., a
comprehensive training programme in each workplace will help workers to:

a) Recognize early signs/symptoms of any potential occupational diseases

before they become permanent conditions.
b) Assess their work environment.
c) Insist that management make changes before hazardous conditions can
develop.

7
Health and safety programmes:
Effective workplace health and safety programmes can help to save the lives of
workers by reducing hazards and their consequences. Health and safety
programmes also have positive effects on both worker morale and productivity,
which are important benefits. At the same time, effective programmes can save
employers a great deal of money. For all of the reasons given below, it is crucial
that employers, workers and unions are committed to health and safety.

a) Workplace hazards are controlled - at the source whenever possible.

b) Records of any exposure are maintained for many years.
c) Both workers and employers are informed about health and safety risks in the
workplace.
d) There is an active and effective health and safety committee that includes
both workers and management.
e) Worker health and safety efforts are ongoing.

34
SUGGESTIONS

35
 SUGGESTIONS

 The major cause for the workplace accidents that occur in the organization is unsafe
handling of material. So the vestibule training method can be included in employee
training program.

 The frequency of safety training for the employees on safety and health can be altered
to monthly once instead of yearly twice.

 Proper maintaining of adequate First aid facilities should be ensured.

 The rest roam should be reconstructed with sufficient space and the sports center
facility can also be extended to temporary labours.

 Ergonomics method should be followed. In an ergonomic workplace tools are

designed to fit individual capabilities and limitation so that people can do their job
without being injured.

 Work environment causes number of problems, counseling enables to overcome

personal and technical problems.

 A careful Pre employment and Post employment medical check up can also be
extended to temporary labours.

36
CONCLUSIONS

37
 CONCLUSIONS

This analysis will give a clear idea as to the situation of a large number of accidents
that occur in the organization and the steps that an organization should take to reduce these
accidents and to prevent them from occurring in future.

Some of the suggested measures for improving employees safety and health include
vestibule training method, first aid facilities, recreational facilities, counseling program, pre
employment and post employment medical check up for improving the effectiveness of
employees safety and health.

The findings of the survey will be utilized to bring about the necessary changes in
Employees Safety & Health procedures in the company.

The above concept could be better envisaged to bring about the better safety and health
for the employees by inculcating the concept of Ergonomics.

38
