It’s not just the most serious incidents that can have an
effect. What kind of an impact can non-fatal injuries have on
the morale and productivity of a workforce?
Bryan Lawrie (BL): “We have seen a downward trend in non-fatal injuries to workers over
the last few years, which is always encouraging to hear. The use of PPE
(https://www.shponline.co.uk/ppe-personal-protective-equipment/?cid=nav) and the
awareness surrounding its importance has clearly had a positive affect to injury rate,
however, we would obviously like to see this figure continue to reduce. It’s also important
that employers maintain their awareness of day to day risks and pass these onto their
workforce to be seen to promote a safe working environment, this includes offering
training and ensuring worker’s PPE is in good working condition. This will go a long way
to increase employees’ productivity and keep morale high; if employees feel that their
employer is investing both time and money into their wellbeing, it will have a positive
effect on their attitude whilst at work.
“It’s also vital that employers show their workforce that they take non-fatal injuries
seriously and are committed to keeping employees safe – again, this will go a long way
ensuring morale remains high.”

“What’s more, we can ensure that all equipment and clothing we supply is completely
compliant and meets all regulations.”
“It goes without saying that any responsible employer will work with the person affected
and their family to ensure they have the help needed to make a full recovery and, where
possible, are able to return to work.”
