Health, Safety and Risk Management

Fundamental principles have always been the main work ethic that drives employees to perform at their best. Employers, Unions and Governments have initiated strategies, structures systematically in order to secure the on going economy realising the fact that every town,state, country, continent needs to function in the best way possible to sustain while reserving its available resources. Health, Safety and Risk Management are some of Abraham Maslow's listed basic needs therefore in order for an employee to perform to their maximum capabilities these very important parts of their day to day lives have to be constantly revisited and amended on a regular basis.

The nineteenth-century realised the employee's need for a healthy and safe workplace, there were enormous hazards which often resulted in death, serious injuries or reduced the life span due to long hours of work and heavy physical demands of the factory system in the wake of the industrial revolution. Therefore we are going to be looking at the policies that were implemented since this century and that are continually going to make sure that employees and employers are kept safe and healthy with minimal risks. Understanding that when any unknown risks present themselves we have ideas and the capable teams in place to assist with the necessary steps to make a work place safe.

The principle that hard work is intrinsically virtuous or worthy of reward justifies the structures demystifying interpretation that democracy has realised the unequivocal difference between a slave and employee. The change of terms has been noted as a mere catachresis for employers/government still treat individuals in such an unfavourable manner. There are many aspects of work environments that affect employees and the way they work. As we are going to look at these in depth we have to understand potential future risks of the innovations and technology being developed currently.
