Occupational health and safety has been a concern since the beginning of the industrialisation, and protected in legislation since the second half of the 20th century yet until recent days, the cost of work related injuries and accidents is making up 4% of global GDP each year – not mentioning the human cost of lost lives and lifelong suffering.
It is not only because employers often see occupational health and safety as paper work and a bottomless pit of spending – workers might see it as a burden themselves, withholding them from doing their job as effectively as they could do if they were taking those little, irrelevant risks, which they could handle anyway.



...This is what they think, at least.


This approach is, however, quite harmful.


Accidents happen accidentally, whilst occupational diseases may develop slowly and insidiously.

You have to remember that there are existing laws to protect human rights, and in the event of signing an employment contract parties are buying and selling time, professionalism, and workforce – not human life and health. No organisation, insurance group or state benefits will be able to entirely compensate an individual and their family after losing any of the latter ones to their job, in spite of the high price companies have to pay if it turns out that they have failed to comply with health and safety rules.



Our mission is to provide tailored information and support for employers, employees, and workers who are in the need of creating a healthier and safer work environment.
It is all for free, so whenever you are ready, please touch the button below.
