The day was declared by the International Labour Organization (ILO) to market the prevention of occupational accidents and diseases globally. World Day for Safety and Health at Work is an awareness-raising campaign “intended to focus international attention on emerging trends within the field of occupational safety and health and on the magnitude of work-related injuries, diseases and fatalities worldwide”.
Occupational safety and health are often important for moral, legal, and financial reasons. All organisations have a requirement of care to make sure that employees and the other one that could also be suffering from the businesses undertaking remain safe in the least times. Moral obligations would involve the protection of employee’s lives and health. Legal reasons for OSH practices relate to the preventative, punitive and compensatory effects of laws that protect worker’s safety and health.
