The most precious resource in any organization is its people.
People are a company's major investment, and their welfare is essential to good business.
The safest workplace is the most productive workplace. Industrial accidents disrupt production and affect people's lives, and in today's competitive marketplace, companies cannot afford the losses incurred. And, increasingly, employees are sensitive to their environment and are demanding safe and healthful working conditions. Many industries are heavily regulated by federal and state government to maintain specific health and safety standards and are monitored to assure compliance with these standards. While substantial progress has been made in industrial health and safety, deaths, disabilities, and industrial accidents and disasters continue to occur.
