 HEALTH CARE
Health care is the efforts to maintain or restore physical, mental, or emotional well-being,
especially by trained and licensed professionals usually hyphenated when used
attributively.

PERSONAL SAFETY
Personal safety is a concept that we
all need to have in order to feel at
peace and minimally comfortable.
Many people know of Maslow's
hierarchy of needs, which places
safety and security second on the list.
This means that after satisfying our
physiological needs we need to feel
safe.

HEALTHY WORKING
ENVIRONMENTS
A healthy work environment is about
more than being safe. A Healthy
workplace is one where employees in
addition to feeling secure and enjoying a
safe physical work environment; feel
recognized for the work they do. enjoy a
positive social environment that
encourages respect, fosters a sense of
belonging and purpose.

 HEALTH CARE

The services provided by a country or an organization that involve caring for people's health and treating
people who are ill. It encompasses the assessment and control of those environmental factors that can
potentially affect health. It is targeted towards preventing disease and creating health-supportive
environments.

5
 CAUSE
• Factors include air pollution, water and sanitation,
increasing heat waves and severe weather events,
harmful exposure to chemicals and more. The
estimation of the burden of disease from
environmental factors relies on information about
exposure and exposure response relationships.
Given the well‐documented relationship between
lifestyle, disease burden and healthcare costs, it
makes economic and medical sense to hold
individuals morally responsible for their health‐
related choices.
EFFECTS
• Most of the discussion in bioethics and health policy
concerning social responsibility for health has focused
on society's obligation to provide access to healthcare.
While ensuring access to healthcare is an important
social responsibility, societies can promote health in
many other ways, such as through sanitation, pollution
control, food and drug safety, health education,
disease surveillance, urban planning and occupational
health. Greater attention should be paid to strategies
for health promotion other than access to healthcare,
such as environmental and public health and health
research. Providing social health protection and equal
access to quality health care has significant positive
effects on individual and public health, economic
growth and development. responsibility, public health,

 PERSONAL SAFETY
• Your personal safety is a general recognition and avoidance of possible harmful situations or persons in your
surroundings.

CAUSE
• Individual & Environmental Factors You as an individual have certain qualities and attributes that may make
you feel more or less safe. For instance, if you are over the age of eighty, you may not feel as safe as much
as younger people being at home alone. At that age, it's far more likely you're going to fall down the stairs and
perhaps hurt yourself. This is why companies sell bracelets and necklaces that have buttons that can be
pushed to go get help in case you can't get to the phone.

• Actually, in the example I just gave you, your environment also influences your safety. For an elderly
individual, even their own home environment may pose serious danger. For others their environmental
dangers may tie in with where they work. If you work in an office, the dangers to your safety are minimal, but
if you work in construction then your job can pose many personal safety risks, like falling objects or getting
run over by some big machine.
8
• Socioeconomic & Cultural Socioeconomic factors are a big determinant of personal safety. If you are
quite poor and live in high crime areas, chances are far higher you're going to be hurt or killed than if
you are living in a privileged gated community with twenty-four hour security patrols in the
neighborhood. People living in high crime areas may experience criminal violence or maybe falsely
identified as a criminal by citizens or police, which can lead to an innocent individual being harmed. Be
responsible for your personal safety

EFFECTS
• Better awareness of risks, improved knowledge of personal safety procedures, and fewer distractions
can mean that stress-related absences reduce, and staff are less likely to be injured as a result of a
personal safety incidents.

• Be alert to your surroundings and the people around you. Try to avoid isolated bus stops. Don't open
your purse or wallet while boarding the bus—have your pass or money already in your hand. Keep
jewelry out of sight; don't flash jewelry; turn rings around so the stones don't show.

• A safe and healthy workplace not only protects workers from injury and illness, it can also lower
injury/illness costs, reduce absenteeism and turnover, increase productivity and quality, and raise
employee morale. In other words, safety is good for business. Plus, protecting workers is the right thing
to do. 9
