OHSE - Occupational Health Safety and Environment
In this era of globalization, mechanization & in a highly competitive market environment, organizations are increasingly driven by critical cost considerations. In view of this, the performance and efficiency of the workforce becomes a crucial aspect. There has been a sea change in the way we perceive health.
Sedentary work style, changing values & stress have been detrimental to our bodies, altering our biological clock in the process & most of times unknowingly.
An employee’s performance hinges on his/her physical and mental well-being, which in turn, is largely attributed to how conducive the workplace is. A workplace that is devoid of stress, fatigue or injury implies maximum efficiency. Contrast this with an ill-conceived and poorly designed set up, where employees are stressed out and mishaps are common. Clearly, this is a non - conducive work environment that is low on productivity and high on overheads.
Which is why companies today are compelled to focus on Occupational Health. The idea is to have a stimulating workplace that nurtures the efficiency of the workforce. After all, that is the mantra to growth and success. |
