法律的衝擊概述(ppt 77頁)(英文)

CHAPTER OVERVIEW
This chapter introduces the legislation that regulates safety and health in the workplace.
The supervisor must be familiar with the kinds of practices required to preserve health and safety in their department.
They also must keep formal records of occupational injuries and illnesses, and be sure that employees have information about chemical hazards, as required by OSHA’s right-to-know rule.
Employers are taking actions to control these conditions because they are costly to the organization and reduce employee morale when they are left unattended.
Benefits to organizations from well-designed and executed safety and health programs are reduced number and severity of work-related injuries and illness that cut associated costs.
In addition, concern for employees’ safety and health
motivates employees,
reduces turnover, and
avoids the pain and suffering of employees.
