Any business operator would be devastated to have a worker seriously injured or killed on the job. To break the news to the worker’s family. To face the damage to their company’s reputation.
Injury rates are trending down in the manufacturing sector, but B. C. workers still missed 3.65 million days of work in 2021 due to work-related incidents and disease, and 161 people lost their lives due to workplace injuries or illness.
Designing an effective safety program is the responsible thing to do for your employees and your business. It’s a basic building block for sustainability. With today’s aging workforce and low unemployment, your investment in safety management is a critical factor in:
