A BRIEF INTRODUCTION OF SAFETY, HEALTH, AND WELFARE WITH RESPECTS TO MSME
Keywords:
Risk Control, Safety, Health, EnvironmentAbstract
The term "occupational safety and health" (OSH) refers to the study of protecting employees from harm on the job. Programs for worker safety and health are in place to guarantee a healthy and risk-free workplace for everyone. Safety in the workplace is crucial for everyone, not just workers. Yet this support system isn't only for workers. N. H. Husain (2010).
The vast majority for industrial companies are put in situations where they face severe risks to their employees' health and safety.
These threats have the ability to interfere with the operations and output of businesses in a negative way, either or through an indirect manner. It is very necessary for a company to have an efficient risk management system in place if they want for their business to grow and be successful in the future. This is as a result of the fact that efficient risk management makes it possible for an enterprise to safeguard its well-being, assets, and possibilities while simultaneously maximising the extent to which it may profit from these factors.
