Abstract

The aim of study is to examine the strategic issues pertaining to employee safety and health. Some organizations replace the revoked safety programs with more innovative ones. Some safety programs also have rewards for employees who avoid accidents. The study helps to maintain proper safety standards using Energy Source Identification Document (ESID). It would also help the manufacturing sectors to ensure that employees take protection against unsafe practices. Every organization should formulate and implement the principles explained in this paper. The procedure to be adopted naturally depends upon the size of the company, the number of plants it operates, the nature of the industry in which it is engaged, the production technology it uses, and the attitude of the top management. After it has spelt out its ESID program, a manufacturing institution should establish a ESID oriented safety program, the primary goals of which should be to reduce the number of hazardous factors that are likely to cause accidents, and to develop safe working habits among its employees. Hence a realistic & positive view has to be inculcated to ensure the safety & health of workforce in an organization.
