Senior Safety Officer; B.Engr, Met/Mat; HSE Professional (NEBOSH IGC, ISPON Level 3). Nine years cognate work experience

A workplace accident is an unwanted and unplanned occurrence in the workplace leading to physical or mental damages, injury and/or to fatality. ILO says 337 million accidents annually around the globe. That's alarming. Accidents arise from unsafe behaviors and unsafe conditions. Workplace safety culture plays a crucial role in accident prevention. Whereas a good safety culture fights against accidents, poor safety cultures fight for accidents in the workplace. * Accident comes unannounced * Accident happens when we fail to comply with safety measures put in place * The costs of an accident are high, painful, and most times, irreplaceable * Workplace accident is REAL Don't wait to be the next victim. Obey applicable safety rules no matter how 'tangible or intangible' they may look. Have a safe working week #safety #workplace #accident #accidentprevention #unsafeact #unsafeconditions #hse
