WHAT IS OHS

• Occupational health and safety (OHS) is a concept


that affects every organization, but you need to
understand the basics in order to inform your safety
management strategy effectively.
• OHS, or Occupational Health and Safety, is a
multidisciplinary practice dealing with all aspects of
health and safety in the workplace, with a strong
focus on preventing workplace hazards.
• The enjoyment of these standards is a basic human
right that should be afforded to each and every
worker, regardless of the nature of their work.
With OHS standards in place, workers are able to
carry out their responsibilities in a safe and secure
working environment, free from hazards. The best
part is that you don’t even have to hire someone
new to do the job. You can invest in occupational
health and training for your current staff.
