Employers have a duty of care to their staff and must do what is reasonable and practicable to protect the health, safety and welfare of workers. However, despite plans, procedures and systems, people can and do, make mistakes. Risk-taking, inadequate training and human error all contribute to the safety of a workplace and failure to adhere to health & safety can lead to catastrophic results to individual workers and organisations.
Everybody who works to reduce accidents in the workplace is concerned with human behaviour."
Cowry can help you to reduce the number of employees who engage in ‘at-risk’ behaviour at work. By embedding the human touch within your organisation, we can help you to successfully identify and manage occupational health and safety risks and hazards within your business and build more valuable, trusting relationships with your employees.
