Abstract

This study focuses on the importance of safety at workplace and OHS (Occupational Health & Safety) practices. It discusses the rationale behind why worker safety training is important for a safety management system, the existing challenges and the possible solutions and action points to overcome them. It also discusses the different means of people engagement in safety management both at a conceptual level as well as its actual implementation. Various facets of safe work culture have been examined through data analysis of nine elements of the Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS) which shows an interesting result. It depicts that supervision satisfaction and present work satisfaction of the workers have a direct correlation with the safety performance. The purpose is to empower the base of the pyramid where workers are exposed to real hazards.
