The primary objective of National Safe Work Month is to encourage individuals and organisations to prioritise safety in their workplaces and work towards reducing the number of work-related injuries, illnesses and fatalities.
Being healthy and safe means being free from physical and psychological harm. A safe and healthy workplace benefits everyone.
