No matter how many policies and guidelines are laid out for workplace safety, it’s impossible to have a work environment that is hazard-free without ensuring that all employees are aware of those guidelines and put them into practice. A safe working environment is based on how all workers of all levels adhere to and communicate about safety standards at work. The foundation of any workplace that is safe with minimal risk of hazards and danger is one which encourages employees to identify any hazards and unsafe behaviors which they see as well as offer their own suggestions for improving safety.
