What is it about?
Based on the studies analyzed, we can distinguish 2 general approaches to H&S management: on the one hand, a holistic perspective with H&S processes in all departments of the company, and on the other, a more operational perspective that implies decision-making. decisions based on tacit wisdom or the creation of risk management drills that distinguish between relevant and irrelevant events. Based on the interviews conducted, we can conclude that the number of occupational accidents in the sector can only be reduced through health and safety awareness and proper training of workers.

All employees, from management to the shop floor, must take their individual responsibility for health and safety.
