Employee Health and Safety

Employee health and safety training programs are initiated with the objective of making employees take responsibility for their own health. This can be done through programs for enhanced fitness, weight control, better nutrition and stress management. Programs for giving up smoking, better use of medical services and control of chronic illnesses are also organized.

These programs can make employees feel that the employer cares for their well-being. They can reduce absenteeism, lower health care costs and make employees more fit to work. Professional counseling can help employees to deal with issues like substance abuse and family problems. This is as per the principles of safety and occupational health training
