Wellbeing
Health and Safety tends to focus on just that. Slips, trips, and falls, manual handling, falls from heights, and many other hazards which can occur in the workplace. However, mental, and emotional welfare is also addressed in Irish legislation. This is why it is so important to have policies in your workplace which address bullying, sexual harassment, and racism. It is equally as important to create a positive work environment which is understanding and accepting of mental health awareness, grief, fitness, healthy eating, and fostering an encouraging and safe work space.
