What is Occupational Health and Safety (OHS)?

Occupational health and safety (OHS) is a branch

of public health aimed at improving workplace
health and safety standards. It studies injury and
illness trends in the worker population and offers
suggestions for mitigating the risks and hazards
they encounter on the job. 1212

Occupational Health and Safety in
computer system servicing?
Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) focuses primarily on protecting employees
in the workplace from accidents, injuries, and exposure to harmful substances.
While accidents can happen at any time, it is still the employer’s responsibility to
ensure that they take steps to reduce the risk of incidents and maintain a safe
working environment. Prioritizing OHS at your business has several key benefits,
including:

• Reduced risk or accidents or injuries by identifying and mitigating hazards

• Improved efficiency and productivity due to fewer employees missing work
from illness or injury
• Improved employee relations and morale (a safer work environment is a
1414
less stressful work environment)
