Health and Safety
|
Health and Safety embraces a range
of issues that are assuming greater
and greater prominence in legislation,
in employees' minds and in the press.
The Health and Safety Commission
recommends that all boards of directors
focus on this area and provide clear
leadership for their organisation.
Health and Safety is no longer an
optional extra for companies: it is
a legislative imperative. In addition
to that, studies have shown that poor
health and safety costs UK companies
millions of pounds every year in decreased
productivity, time off through sickness,
demotivation and claims.
Health and Safety relates to a wide
range of issues: repetitive strain
injury in upper limbs, back pain and
eye strain are no longer the only
complaints. These physical factors
have been joined by mental, emotional
and social ones, such as the work/life
balance and workplace stress.
Company Law International can advise
