Worker Safety | Sponsors Directory

Worker safety, also known as occupational safety and health (OSH), is a multidisciplinary field that focuses on the safety, health, and welfare of people at work. Organizations such as the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and the World Health Organization (WHO) play a crucial role in promoting worker safety through research, education, and policy development. It is essential to protect not only workers but also the general public who may be affected by the occupational environment. For instance, NIOSH has published numerous reports on worker safety, and WHO has collaborated with the International Labour Organization (ILO) to estimate the work-related burden of disease and injury.
