Workplace safety is the employer’s responsibility. Employee insurance schemes and safety policies
help cover the risk an employee might suffer at work. Some jobs require the employees to travel or stay
out of their city or country. Therefore, these schemes and policies should cover the risks involved in the
journey and the on-site stay. Certain jobs put the safety of their employees in danger. So, they should also

provide the employees with the safety costs.
Safety is important at a workplace, because human resources are the most important resources of an
organization. Satisfied employees can earn for a company what money can’t buy. Human life is priceless.
It cannot be made up for, even by money compensations. An employer might be able to substitute an

employee for another, but not necessarily his devotion and knowledge. That’s why it’s important for
organizations to understand that human resources are their most precious property. This is also a reason
why employers should provide workplace safety.
Workplace safety involves training programs. They are meant to teach the employees to handle risks.

Employees need to be trained to react to the approaching dangers, if nay. They should be trained to fight
risks and deal with accidents at work in case they occur. It is important for the company to provide its
employees with the safety needs through risk covers as well as training programs.
