Introduction to Health and Safety at work

Most people are aware that health and safety is important, but for whatever reasons, precautions are regularly ignored. This video shows how very simple changes to workplace activity can avoid life changing harm or injury and the importance of health and safety at work.

00:00 A real life example of injury caused by poor measures
00:43 Workers' rights
00:54 Personal responsibilities
01:26 Risk assessment in our personal lives
02:19 Example of injury over a period of time
02:56 Managing risk in a work environment
04:37 Keeping the workplace as safe as possible

It also shows how we all do our own risk assessments in our personal lives, so carrying them out at work is just a continuation of these. Although responsibility for health and safety primarily lies with the management, everyone has their role to play in looking after themselves and others.

As a worker in the uk it is pretty much impossible to get health and safety at work, it is ignored by most company’s without a union in place. You can’t even call a person at HSE to discuss serious breaches at work. You are on your own and bosses know and exploit this. I have been told by my works manager that health and safety doesn’t count until you get caught.
