| Tiivistelmä: | Management and labour pay a very high cost - in human, social, and economic terms - for unsafe work habits and unsafe workplaces. The bottom-line results of improved industrial safety to the organization and to the worker are obvious. Lower production and personal costs are gained not only through reductions in injury, medical costs, and compensation, but also through improved efficiency and greater productivity that comes from improving the morale of workers. Using an Occupational Safety and Health Administration document, ten major causal factors that result in industrial accidents are listed and discussed. Based on the National Safety Council recommendations, a six-step program for a safe working environment is described. |
