WHY this is for you
Helping you and your workforce deal with health at work is good for everyone and is good for business.
It’s the right thing to do and you’ll be thanked for doing it. Everyone benefits.
Ill health and minor injury costs the UK at least £100 billion each year.
Making the case for Health & Work
If you need convincing, or you need to convince anyone else, the case for looking after health is:
You’ve got to do at least some of it - As an employer you have a duty under Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare at work of your employees.
You ought to do it - Because it will mean you are a good and responsible employer and your staff will want to work for you.
You’ll be glad you did - It’ll save you money.
Because you can:
-
Increase employee commitment and job satisfaction
-
Increase productivity
-
Attract and retain the best staff
-
Have less working time lost due to absence
-
Improve customer satisfaction
-
Enhance your brand/reputation
-
Have fewer accidents
-
Reduce financial and other costs associated with absence
