Health and safety at work form a huge part of your duty of care as an employer. It’s your job to protect your employees’ health, safety, and welfare. Each year on 28th April, World Day for Safety & Health at Work promotes the importance of this across the globe.
This year, the theme is "Inclusive and sustainable occupational safety and health". The theme focuses on involving both employers and employees in prioritising their own health and safety, as well as those around them.
The day encourages organisations to incorporate safety and health into workplace culture. To do this everyone must join together in an effort to implement policies and procedures that work. This cohesion creates a workplace environment where employees feel supported to raise concerns or issues. Here's some suggestions on how to make the most of World Day for Safety & Health at Work this year.
