Issues in Employee Health & Safety
 An organizational approach to safety is effective only when both the work design and 
employee behavior work in coordination towards it
 
 Physical Work Settings: Include temperature, noise levels, and proper lighting, size of 
     work area, kinds of materials used, distance between work areas etc 
      The physical settings of work affect the performance of employees to a great extent.
 
 Sick Building Syndrome: It is a situation in which employees experience acute health
    problems and discomfort due to the time spent in a building (particularly their 
    workplace)
Factors that lead to sick buildings include poor air quality, inadequate ventilation, improper 
cleanliness, stench of adhesives and glues

 Ergonomics: The term comes from the Greek word ergon, which means “work,” and
omics which means “management of.”
Ergonomics is the study of physiological, psychological, and engineering design aspects of
a job, including such factors as fatigue, lighting, tools, equipment layout, and placement of
controls.
It is the interface between men and machines
Ergonomics is taken into consideration when designing the workstation for computer

 Engineering of Work Equipments and Materials: Accidents can be prevented in a
way by proper placements of dangerous machines
Providing safety guards and covers on equipments, emergency stop buttons and other
provisions help in reducing the accidents considerably
 Cumulative Trauma and Repetitive Stress: Cumulative trauma disorder occurs when
same muscles are used repetitively to perform some task. This results in injuries of
musculoskeletal and nervous system. Employees encounter high levels of mental and
physical stress also.
 Accident Rates and Individuals: An individual approach to safe environment helps in
reducing the accident rates. This is generally because more problems are caused by
careless employees than by machines or employer negligence
A positive attitude towards work environment and other practices promotes employee
safety
