Helping employers avoid these unwanted scenarios are the guidelines provided by OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration), a division under the United States Department of Labor with jurisdiction in over seven million sites. OSHA is focused on protecting the workforce’s safety and health while also providing training, outreach, education, and assistance to employers.
Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) management systems help companies and organizations automate and digitize health and safety-related workflows. OHS includes health and safety policies, systems, standards, and records, and includes incorporating health and safety activities and programs into key business processes. It is necessary to have an effective management system that improves the ability to continuously identify hazards and control risks at the workplace.
