16. WHAT IS OHS
• Occupational health and safety (OHS) is a concept that
affects every organization,but you need to understand the
basics in order to inform your safety management
strategy effectively.
• OHS, or Occupational Health and Safety, is a
multidisciplinary practice dealing with all aspects of health
and safety in the workplace, with a strong focus on
preventing workplace hazards.
17. • The enjoyment of these standards is a basic
human right that should be afforded to each
and every worker, regardless of the nature of
their work. With OHS standards in place,
workers are able to carry out their
responsibilities in a safe and secure working
environment, free from hazards. The best part
is that you don’t even have to hire someone new
to do the job. You can invest in occupational
health and training for your current staff.
