Occupational Health & Safety

Occupational Health & Safety (OHS) refers to the practices, policies, and systems put in place to ensure the health, safety, and well-being of employees in the workplace. It involves identifying workplace hazards, assessing risks, and implementing preventive and corrective measures to protect workers from accidents, injuries, and occupational illnesses. A strong OHS program creates a safe working environment, reduces incidents, and ensures compliance with legal and industry-specific safety standards.

With increasing regulatory scrutiny and a growing emphasis on employee welfare, organizations must prioritize occupational health and safety as a core element of their operational strategy. Implementing an OHS management system, such as ISO 45001, helps organizations systematically manage risks, improve incident response, and promote a culture of safety across all levels of the workforce. It not only safeguards human capital but also enhances productivity and reputation.
