INTRODUCTION

Employee’s health safety and welfare at work
are protected by law Employer has a duty to
protect employees and keep informed about health
and safety employees have a responsibility to look
after yourself and others. If there is a problem,
discuss it with employer or safety representative if
there is one. This leaflet is a brief guide to health
and safety law. It does not describe the law in
detail, but it does list the key points. Employer
has a duty under the law to ensure so far as is
reasonably practicable employee’s health, safety
and welfare at work. Employer must consult with
employer or employees safety representative on
matters relating to your health and safety at work.
Including any change which may substantially

affect employee’s health and safety at work, eg. in
procedures equipment or ways of working the
employer’s arrangements for getting competent
people to help employee’s safety health and safety
laws. The information employees have to be
given on the likely risks and dangers arising from
your work measures to reduce or get rid of these
risks and what employee should do if employees
have to deal with a risk or danger. The planning
of health and safety and the health and safety
consequences of introducing new technology. In
general employer’s duties include making
employees workplace safe and without risks to
health ensuring plant and machinery are safe and
that safe systems of work are set and followed
ensuring articles and substances are moved, stored
and used safety providing adequate welfare
facilities giving employees information,
instruction, training and supervision necessary for
employees health and safety in particular

employer must assess the risks to employees
health and safety makes arrangement for
implementing the health and safety measures
identified as being necessary by the assessment. If
there are five or more employees record the
significant findings of the risk assessment and the
arrangements for health and safety measures. If
there are five or more employees draw up a health
and safety policy statement including the health
and safety organization and arrangements in force
and bring it to your attention appoint someone
competent to assist with health and safety
responsibilities and consult employee or
employees safety representative about this
appointment co-operate on health and safety with
other employers sharing the same workplace set-
up emergency procedures provide adequate first
aid facilities make sure that the workplace
satisfies health, safety and welfare requirements
eg. for ventilation, temperature, lighting and

sanitary, washing and rest facilities make sure that
work equipment is suitable for its intended use so
far as health and safety is concerned, and that it is
properly maintained and used prevent or
adequately control exposure to substances which
may damage your health take precautions against
danger from flammable or explosive hazards
electrical equipment noise and radiator avoid
hazarders manual handling operations and where
they cannot be avoided reduce the risk of injury
provide health surveillance as appropriate provide
free and protective clothing or equipment where
risks are not adequately controlled by other means
ensure that appropriate safety signs are provided
and maintained report certain injuries, diseases
and dangerous occurrences to the appropriate
health and safety enforcing authority. [see box

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Health and Safety:
INTRODUCTION:
Health is a state of complete physical, mental and
social well being and not merely the absence of
disease. It is the out come of the interaction between
the individual and his environment. He is healthy
who is well adjusted.

 Health Meaning:
The term ‘health’ is a positive and dynamic concept.
In common parlance health implies absence of
disease. However, that industrial health implies
much more than more absence of disease is clear
from Health.

 Definition [Health]:

The worker who is healthy is always cheerful
confident working and strength well being in any
time that is called health.

 Safety Meaning:
Before discussing other issues relating to safety, it is
useful to understand the nature of safety. Safety, in
simple terms, means freedom from the occurrence of
risk of injury or loss. Industrial safety or employee
safety refers to the protection of workers from the
danger of industrial accidents. An accident, then is
an unplanned and un-controlled event in which an
action or reaction of an object a substance, a person,
or a radiation result in personal injury.

 Definition [Safety]:
Safety means prevention to danger or risk injury or
loss. Industrial safety or employee safety to
protection of workers from the danger of Industrial
accidents.

Working conditions affecting health:
1. Cleanliness:
Hygiene is essential of health dirt should be removed
daily from the workplace, furniture, staircases etc.
properly cleaned and his infected spittoons must be
provided at convenient places.

2. Lighting:
Adequate and proper lighting is essential for higher
efficiency and good quality of work. Poor lighting on
the other hand causes eye strain mental fatigue,
accidents and spoilage of materials.

3. Temperature and Ventilation:
Flow of fresh air with right temperature and
humidity is necessary for protection of health in hat
and humid climate employees feel tired and sleepy
ventilation fans coolers, heaters, air conditioners help
to maintain right temperature and humidity.

4. Freedom from Noise:
Too much noise inside and outside the work place
causes disturbance. It does not allow workers to
concentrate on the work and their efficiency declines.

5. Working space and Seating arrangements:
Adequate space should be provided for free
movement of persons machines etc. over crowding
should be avoided as it spoils health and efficiency.

OCCUPATIONAL HAZARDS AND DISEASES:

1. Chemical substances:
Carbon di oxide, sulphuric acid, limes and alkalise
cause injury when they are absorbed through skin and
inhaling.

2. Biological Hazards:

Bacteria, fungi, viruses, insects malnutrition
excessive drinking and job stress affect employer
health.

3. Environmental records :
These include radiation, noise, vibrations shocks
etc. X-rays are radio active exposure may cause eye
train genetic disorders and cancer.

4.Atmospheric conditions :-
Ventilation improper lighting extrane
temperature etc., effect health and efficiency of
employees.
Under the factories act 1948. hazardous process
to defined as “any process or activity in relation to
are industry specified in the first schedule. Where
unless special care taken raw material used there in or
the intermediate are finished products.

 Protection against health hazards :-

The types of measure can be taken to protect
employee health against occupational hazards.
1. Preventive measures
2. Curative measures

The former category includes
a) Pre-employment and periodic medical
examination.
b)Removal of health hazards to the maximum
possible extent.
c) Check over women and alter workers exposed to
especial risks.
d)Training of first aid staff.
e) Education workers in health and hygiene etc...

The curative measures consist of treatment for
the effect workers. Use of less toxic materials,
providing protecting devices, controlling dust, fumes

gases etc.. are some of the convenient and
inexpensive measures that can be taken by the
employers to prevent health hazards to employees.
 Statutory provisions concerning health:
The factories act 1948 says down the following
provisions concerning employees health.

1. Cleanliness :-
a) Every factory shall be kept clean and free from
effluvia arising from any drain.
b) Privy are other nuisance. The flavour of every
work room shall be cleaned at least once in every
week by washing.
c) Where a flavour is likely to become wet increase
of any manufacturing process to such an extent as
is capable of being drained effective means of
drainage shall be provided.
d) Walls partitions ceiling doors, windows etc... shall
be painted varnished, white colour washed in the
prescribed manner.

2. Disposal of waste and Effluents:-
Effective arrangement shall be made in every
factory for the treatment of wastes and effluents due
to manufacturing process carried on there in, so as to
render them innocueres and for their disposal.

3. Ventilation and Temperature :-
a. The every factory for securing and maintaining
in every work room the circulation of fresh air
and such a temperature as will secure to workers
there in reasonable conditions of comfort and
prevent injury to health.
b) The process which provides high temperature
shall be separated from the work room by
insulating the hot parts or by alter effective
means.

4. Artificial Humidification :-

In any factory in which the humidity of the air is
artificially increased, the water use for the
purpose shall be taken from a public supply are
other source of drinking water or shall be
effectively purified before it is so used.

5. Over Crowding :-
There shall be in every work room of a factory at
least 9.9 cubic metres [for the factories existing
before this act] and 14.2 cubic metres [for factories
built after this act] of space for every worker. In
calculating such space, no account shall be taken of
any space which is more than 4.2 metres above the
level of the room’s floor.

6. Lighting :-
a) In every part of the factory where workers are
working are passing there shall be provided and
maintained sufficient and suitable lighting
material are artificial or bath.

b) All glazed windows and sky lights used for
lighting shall be kept clean and free from
obstructions.

7. Drinking :-
a) In every factory effective arrangement shall be
made so provided and maintain at suitable points
conveniently situated for all workers.
b) All such points shall be marked “drinking water”
in a language understand by a majority of
workers employed in the factory.

8. Latrines and urinals :-

a) In every factory :- Sufficient latrine
accommodation of prescribed type shall be
provided conveniently situated and accessible to
workers at the time while they are at the factory.
b) In every factory where in more than two hundred
and fifty workers are ordinarily employed. All
latrine accommodation shall be of prescribed
sanitary types
9. Spittoons :-
a) In every factory there shall be provided a
sufficient number of spittoons at convenient
places and they shall be maintains in a clean and
hygienic condition.
b) No person shall spit within the premises of a
factory except in the spittoon provided for the
purpose.

Types of Accidents
Accidents are of different types. They may be
classified as major and minor ones, depending upon

the severity of the injury. An accident which ends in a
death, or which results in a prolonged disability to the
injured is a major one. A scratch or a cut which does
not seriously disable him/her is a minor accident.

An accident may be internal or external. If a
worker falls, or an object falls on him/her, it is
possible he or she may show no external signs of
injury, but he or she may have fractured a bone or
strained a muscle or nerve --- which is an internal
injury. A worker may be disabled by an injury for an
hour, half a day, a day, a week, a month, or a few
months. If he or she recovers from such a disability,
his or her disability is temporary, If the injury is such
that he or she will never recover fully, his or her
disability is permanent.

Accidents

Internal External

Major Minor

Fatal Disability

Temporary Permanent

Partial Total Total Partial

Need for Safety

Eliminate the causes for accidents and industrial
safety is ensured.
Why safety?
An accident-free plant enjoys certain benefits.
Major ones are substantial
1. Savings in costs
2. Increased productivity
3. And moral and legal grounds.

 Cost Saving :
Two types of costs are incurred by the
management when an accident occurs. There are the
direct costs, in the form of compensation payable to
the dependents of the victim if the accident is fatal,
and medical expenses incurred in treating the patient

if the accident is non-fatal, the management,
however, is not liable to meet the direct costs if the
victim is insured under the ESI scheme. When the
victim is uninsured, compensation and medical
expenses are the responsibility of the management.
There is the cost of risk management, which the
management must bear.

More serious than the direct costs are the indirect
or hidden costs which the management cannot avoid.
In fact, the indirect costs are three to four times
higher than the direct costs. Hidden costs include loss
on account of down-time of operators, slowed-up
production rate of other workers, materials spoiled
and labour for cleaning, and damages to equipment.

When an injured worker returns (if he/she is
lucky to do so), he/she may operate at less than
his/her normal efficiency for sometime. Co-workers,
too, may become emotionally upset for some time

and consequently turnout fewer and inferior goods.
Finally, customers may be lost because of the non-
execution of orders on time.
A safety plant, by avoiding accidents, eliminates
these direct and indirect costs.
 Increased productivity :
Safety plants are efficient plants. To a large extent,
safety promotes productivity, employees in safe
plants can be devote more time to improving the
quality and quantity of their output and spend less
time worrying about their safety and well-being.

 Moral :
Safety is important on humane grounds too.
Managers must undertake accident prevention
measures to minimise the pain and suffering the
injured worker and his/her family are often exposed
to as a result of the accident. An employee is a

worker in the factory and the bread-winner for his/her
family. The happiness of his/her family depends upon
the health and well-being of the worker. It is no secret
that the dependents of a worker look forward to
his/her reaching home safe everyday. Imagine their
agony when they receive the news that the fingers,
legs, eyes, hands or the life itself of their bread-
winner has been in jeopardy. True, a fatal or non-fatal
injury entitles his/her dependents or him to monetary
a compensation, as per the workmen’s compensation
act, 1923. But is monetary compensation a substitute
for the person?

 Legal :
There are legal reasons too for undertaking safety
measures. There are laws covering occupational
health and safety, and penalties for non-compliance
have become quite serve. The responsibility extends
to the safety and health of the surrounding
community, too. The Supreme Court held:

An enterprise which is engaged in a hazardous or
inherently dangerous industry which poses a potential
threat to the health and safety of the persons working
in the factory and industry in the surrounding areas,
owes an absolute and non-delegable duty to the
community to ensure that no harm result to anyone on
account of the hazardous or inherently dangerous
nature. This implies unlimited liability.
The civil law established the extent of damages
or compensation. Under the criminal law, sentences
are prescribed under the pollution control laws. There
is no legal ceiling on the extent of liability.

Finally, financial losses which accompany
accidents can be avoided if the plant is accident free.
Financial losses can be considerable as revealed in
table.

Safety programme

Safety programme deals with the prevention of
accidents and with minimising the resulting loss and
damage to persons and property. Five basic principles
must govern the safety programme of an
organisation. The five principles are:
1. Industrial accidents result from a multiplicity of
factors. But these have to be traced to their root
causes, which are usually faults in the
management system arising from poor leadership
from the top, inadequate supervision, insufficient
attention to the design of safety into the system,
an unsystematic approach to the identification,
analysis and elimination of hazards, and poor
training facilities.
2. The most important function of safety
programmes is to identify potential hazards,
provide effective safety facilities and equipment
and to take prompt remedial action. This is
possible only if there are:

Comprehensive and effective systems for
reporting all accidents causing damage or
injury;
Adequate accident records and statistics;
Systematic procedures for carrying out
safety checks, inspections and
investigations;
Methods of ensuring that safety equipment
is maintained and used; and
Proper means available for persuading
managers, supervisors and workers to pay
more attention to safety matters.
3. The safety policies of the organisation should be
determined by the top management and it must
be continuously involved in monitoring safety
performance and in ensuring that corrective
action is taken when necessary.
4. The management and the supervision must be
made fully accountable for safety performance in
the working areas they control.

5. All employees should be given thorough training
in safe methods of work and they should receive
continuing education and guidance on
eliminating safety hazards and prevention of
accidents.

A safety programme generally contains six elements,
namely
1. Making strategic choices.
2. Development of policies, procedures and training
systems.
3. Organisation for safety.
4. Analysis of the caused and occurrence of
accidents.
5. Implementation of the programme.
6. Evaluation of the effectiveness of the
programme.

Strategic Choices

The first step in a safety programme is for
managements to make decisions regarding safety of
their workers. Many of the decisions made are based
on strategic choices available to the organisation.
Some of these strategic choices are;

1. Managers must determine the level of protection
the organisation will provide for employees.
Some companies, for financial or liability
reasons, prefer a minimum level of protection,
while other organisations choose a maximum
level of protection, while other organisations
choose a maximum level of protection.
2. Managers can decide whether a safety
programme will be formal or informal. Formal
programmers will have return regulations and are
carefully monitored. Informal regulations are
enforced through peer pressure or good training.
3. Managers can also be proactive or reactive in
developing procedures or plans with respect to

employee safety. Proactive managers seek to
improve the safety of employees prior to a need
to do so, while reactive managers fix safety
problems after they occur.
4. Managers can decide to use the safety of workers
as a marketing tool for the organisation. This
type of strategy would involve publicising what
the company has done to promote safety and how
safe the plant is to work with.

The four strategic choices listed above will also apply
to issues relating to health of workers.

Safety Policy
The second step in evolving a safety programme
is to have a safety policy. A policy specifies the
company’s goals and designates the responsibilities
and authority for their achievement. It may also
provide caveats and sanctions for failing to fulfil
them. There are differences in the form and content

of corporate policies. Their style, however, is not as
important as the clarity with which they identify
functional responsibilities and authority.

Specifically, a safety policy must contain a
declaration of the organisation’s intent and the means
by which the intent is to be realised. As a part of the
intent, the statement should emphasise four
fundamental points4 (i) the safety of employees and
the public is of paramount importance; (ii) safety will
take precedence over expediency; (iii) every effort
will be made to involve all managers, supervisors and
employees in the development and implementation of
safety procedures; and (iv) safety legislation will be
complied with, in the spirit as well as the letter of the
law.

The means to realise the intent part of a policy refers
to the organisation for safety.

Organisation for safety
The third step in evolving a safety programme is
to constitute an organisation for safety. Companies
constitute safety committees which are, composed of
employees from across the organisation. Typically,
safety committees serve in advisory capacities and
are responsible for such tasks as reviewing safety
procedures, making recommendations for eliminating
specific safety and health hazards, investigating
accidents, fielding safety related complaints from
employees and monitoring statutory compliance.

Most companies employ safety specialists to
design and handle the day-to day activities of the
safety programme. Responsibility of employee safety
devolves upon the HR department whose task is to
co-ordinate the activities of all those concerned with
safety.
The top management cannot absolve itself of the
responsibility of ensuring employee safety. In fact,

the managing director of the company is held
responsible for an accident and is punished with fine,
imprisonment or both.

Risk management is becoming very common
these days. A typical modern corporation carries a
portfolio of risks. They include risks associated with
industrial safety, process technology, hazard
insurance, materials management and environment
degradation. The simplest way of safeguarding
oneself is insurance. But insurance to cover all risks
may not be available or will be expensive, if
available. Industrial risk management is the answer to
the problem. The job of risk
management is to assess all risks for frequency,
probability and severity, and to take necessary steps
to avoid or reduce the impact of potential losses,
besides monitoring the results.

The trend nowadays is to constitute a separate
department for risk management. Essar, for example,
has a 22-member department which is called the
department of environment, risk and insurance
management. The team comprises experts in
insurance and risk management, chemicals,
electronics, mechanical and electrical engineering,
and environmental science.

Consortium approach is spreading to safety, too.
In Mumbai, a handful of companies have taken the
initiative in setting up a mutual aid programme. They
have written a ready reckoner called the Mutual Aid
Response Group (MARG). In the even of a hazard,
expertise is pooled in by the companies to ward off or
control the hazard.

Extent and Remedies for Accidents

Causes for accidents are many and various.
Broadly speaking, these causes may be classified into
two groups
1. Human failure and
2. Machine failure
Human failure leads to an accident when the
employee ignores safety precautions and commits an
unsafe act. Majority of accidents occur because of
human failure. Machine failure refers to faulty
mechanical or physical conditions leading to
accidents.

They are:
1. Lack of adequate inspection adds to the problem
of industrial accidents. We have the factories act,
the boiler act, the Indian explosives act, the
Indian electricity act, the pesticides act, the water
(Prevention and control of pollution) act, the air
(Prevention and control of pollution) act, and the
environment protection act. All these contain

elaborate provisions to ensure employee and
public safety, and also punishment for non-
compliance. Things usually go wrong in the
implementation of the laws.
Here comes the need for stringent inspection
which is not forthcoming. Partly, the problem
lies with the inadequate strength of inspectors.

Abrol of the delhi science forum observes that
Indian plants are not designed with enough back-
up safety systems. Others in the industry point to
corruption in the factories’ inspectorate, the

government arm that is supposed to check on
safety at the factory level. A manufacturer
confesses that he bribed a boiler inspector with
Rs 5000 after the inspector said that the boiler’s
tube outlet for steam should have been stamped
“boiler quality tested”. The newly set-up plant
could not go on stream because the boiler had
not been certified by the factories inspectorate.

In the name of the nature of industry, workers are
crushed to death. Child labour in diamond cutting
industry is common. Workers are often locked from
outside to prevent them from smuggling out
diamonds. The latter custom killed 127 workers as
they stampeded against bolted doors when the
January quake struck polishing units in Ahmedabad.
Because of their arduous calling, most workers,
including children, end up with failed eyesight early
in life.

As companies globalise. And projects especially,
large ones involving greater complexities increase,
new risks emerge. Technological advancement has
brought in threats of obsolescence, which itself is a
big risk.

Accident Rates
Accidents are described in terms of frequency,
severity and incidence. Organisations generally
maintain frequency, severity and incidence records.
Mathematical formulae are used to calculate
accident rates. Thus ,for calculating the incidence
rate the formula is:

Number of recordable
injuries*1 million
Incidence rate= Number of
employee exposure hours

Suppose an organisation had 10 recorded injuries
and 500 employees. To get the number of exposure
hours, it would multiply the number of employees by
40 hours and 50 work weeks, that is 500 *40*50=1
million. In this case, the incidence rate would be 10,
that is there were 10 recorded injuries for every 100
employees.
The severity rate reflects the hours actually lost
due to injury. It recognises that not all injuries are
equal. As was mentioned earlier, injuries may be
fatal or non-fatal, total or partial, and permanent or
temporary. Specific hours may be charged against an
organisation for each category of injuries. The
formula for calculating the severity rate is:

Total hours charged *1 million
severity rate= Number of employee
hours worked

Obviously, an organisation with the same number of
injuries as another but with more deaths would have
a higher severity rate. The problem with severity rate
is allotting hours for each injury. Allotment, at the
most, can be arbitrary. Hence, severity rate is not
generally calculated.
The frequency rate is similar to the incidence rate
except that it reflects the number of injuries per
million hours worked rather than per year:9

Number of disabling
injuries*1 million
Frequency rate= Number of
employee hours worked

The supervisor or the foreman is the key person
in industrial accident prevention. His/her application
of the art of supervision to the control of worker
performance is a factor which exerts the greatest
influence in successful accident prevention.

The humanitarian incentive for preventing
accidental injury is supplemented by a realisation of
two powerful economic factors, namely:
(i) A safe establishment is efficient productively,
and an unsafe establishment is inefficient.
(ii) The direct employer costs of industrial
injuries for compensation claims and for
medical treatment are but one-fourth of the total
which the employer must bear.

Safety should be driven internally, not externally.
Do not count on common sense for safety
improvement.
Safety incentive programs should focus on processes
rather than outcomes.
Behaviour is dictated by activators and motivated by
consequences.
When people feel empowered, their safe behaviour
spreads to other situation.

These axioms give us an idea of various safety
measures to be implemented by the management.
However, we discuss here certain important safety
measures. The measures are applicable to all
industrial establishments, irrespective of their size
and age.

Training in safety
Systematic training of industrial employees is
necessary if they are to do their jobs efficiently and
safely. This is an inescapable requirement, regardless
of how carefully employees are selected or how much
aptitude and experience they may have for the jobs to
which they are assigned. Training practices in the
industry will be found to vary widely with respect to
method, content, quality, quantity, and source of
instruction. The differences are influenced, strongly
by the size of the company, the types of jobs

performed, and the awareness of the management
regarding the importance of training.
Example: Electrical Safety Training:
It is not enough if workers are trained on the
methods of avoiding accidents. They must be trained
on the ways of minimising damage, should an
accident occur. For example, high-voltage line
repairs must be given thorough indoctrination in
correct work methods before they are permitted to
undertake more hazardous phases of their work.
Additionally, the employees must be given
instructions in first-aid procedures, including
specialised techniques for resuscitation, using
prescribed methods that can be applied while the
victim is still at the top of a high-voltage line pole. A
similar problem might occur in a chemical plant.
Employees may be working with compounds that, if
accidentally released or spilled in large volumes,
would cause sever injury upon contact with the skin
or body tissues.” In such situations, a common safety

device is the installation of emergency showers that
provide a deluge of water to thoroughly flush the
dangerous compound off the skin of a victim.
Training for such workers requires, therefore, not
only what to do and what not to do in performing the
job properly, but also thorough instructions on the use
of special devices and procedures, in the event an
emergency occurs.
Training may be given by the foreman or
supervisor responsible for the job. However,
nowadays, the management is finding it worthwhile
to use specialists in training to supplement the work
of the supervisor, as in the case of job analysis and
injury prevention. Training specialists do not
necessarily do the job for which the supervisor is
responsible. The function of the specialist is to set up
the procedure so that the training can be imparted by
qualified persons in the plant or; individual
departments. The specialist will prepare the

instructional manuals and other details for conducting
the training programme, and supervise the activity.
The National Organic Chemical Industries
(NOCIL) has unique training programmes on safety.
The company has a risk management team
comprising medical officers, nursing and pathological
staff and safety officers-all numbering 20. The
team’s agenda includes safety, health and
environment protection. NOCIL’s training
programmes consist of mandatory training
programmes like mock safety drills (every week) and
evacuation drills (at least once in a year). In addition,
the company has organised a modular approach to
step up safety measure.
There is the departmental module in which all
departments at the plant are in an integrated safety
programme. A regular duty system enables every
department to participate. This team is led by the
particular department head assisted by a fire marshall,
an operations expert, four engineers (mechanical,

electrical, inspection and instrumentation) and a
product transport specialist to take accountability of
in-transit cargo.

The second module extends itself beyond the
plant. NOCIL’s sales and marketing teams at
Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi and Chennai have been
geared to take charge in the event of any perilous
occurrence. About 50 sales persons have been
trained to respond to any mishap.
At Burroughs Wellcome India seminars, training
programmes and workshops are a regular feature. In
fact, these programmes have yielded good results to
the company.

Physical and Mechanical Conditions:
Safety measures should be kept in mind while
planning a layout and constructing a building.
Workers must be provided with safe tools and
equipment to work with. All machinery must be

fended, and mechanically and physically unsafe
conditions should be eliminated.
No new machine should be installed without being
sufficiently guarded and fenced. The practice of supply
of safety accessories by the manufacturers on request at
an extra cost must be discontinued. Machines must be
designed, manufactured, priced, and supplied with
necessary built-in safety measures. The safest way
would be to install machines – as in industrially
advanced countries – which would automatically stop
working as soon as the worker’s hand crosses the
danger zone.
Protective equipment of good quality and proper
size, goggles, gloves, ear muffs, safety belts and
shoes, helmets, and so forth, should, be supplied to
workers, who must be educated to wear them while
on duty.
Aisles and passages should be free to permit easy
movement of workers and materials. Proper storage
facilities should be provided for materials and work-

in-progress so as to prevent collision and stumbling,
and to facilitate escape in emergencies.
There is a need for periodic inspection to ensure
safety of workers and machines. Defective tools and
equipment must be discarded. Safe electrical wiring
adds to the safety of a plant.
In this context, it is useful to recollect the
provisions of the Factories Act, 1948 relating to
safety. Sections 21 to 41 of the Act deal with safety.
The safety provisions are absolute and obligatory and
the occupier of every factory is bound to follow them.

HEALTH

The well-being of the employee in an industrial
establishment is affected by accidents and by ill
health-physical
as well as mental. In this section, we shall discuss
the need for healthy workers and health services to be
provided by the management to ensure the continuing
good health of their employees.
We propose to examine employee health from
the following angles-physical health, mental health,
noise control, stress management, AIDS, alcoholism,
and drug abuse, and violence in work place.

i. Physical Health
III health of employees results in reduced
productivity, higher unsafe acts, and increased
absenteeism. A healthy worker, on the other hand,
produces results opposite to these. In other words,
healthy employees are more productive, more safety
conscious, and are more regular to work. The worker

who is healthy is always cheerful, confident looking,
and is an invaluable asset to the organisation.
But the physical health of an employee can be
adversely affected by several causes as shown in the
below Table.

Health Hazards:
Health Hazards Causes
Lung cancer Coke oven emissions, asbestos,
active or passive cigarette
smoke
White lung disease Asbestos
Black lung disease Coal dust
Brown lung disease Cotton dust
Leukaemia Benzene, radiation
Cancer of other Asbestos, radiation, vinyl
organs chloride, coke oven emissions
Sterility/reproductive Radiation
problems
Deteriorating eye- Chemical fumes, office
sight equipment
Hearing impairment High noise levels

A realisation of the advantages which flow from
a healthy workforce has impelled many managements
to provide health services to their employees, which
vary from the simple provision of first-aid equipment
to complete medical care. Many progressive
organisations maintain well-equipped dispensaries
with full-time or part-time doctors and full-time
compounders/nurses. Unlike his/her counterpart of
yesteryears, who would take every precaution to
protect his horses against diseases but felt that the
health of the human worker was his own business, the
manager of today is fully aware of the advantages of
having a healthy workforce.
The protection of the health of the workers is a
legal requirement too. Sections 11 to 20 of the
Factories Act, 1948 deal with the health of workers.

 Health Services: A typical organisation renders the
following health services to its employees. It may
be stated that these services, at best, offer first-aid

treatment to the victims. For any major ailment,
employees are advised to go to ESI or authorised
clinics/nursing homes.
1. Pre-hiring medical check-up for all employees.
2. Periodical physical, check-up of all employees.
Regular medical check-up of executive to detect
early signs of tension, ulcers, diabetes and the
like.
3. First-aid treatment following an accident training
in first-aid to all employees.
4. Treatment of minor complaints, such as cold,
cough, fever and headaches.
5. Rehabilitation and job placement of seriously
injured workers who have been cured but suffer
from some disability.
6. Control of occupational health hazards.
7. Provision of healthy sanitary facilities, such as
supply of portable water, disposal of waste and
effluents; provision of healthy food; elimination

of insects and rodents; provision of personal
services; good housekeeping and the like.
8. Special examination of eyes, teeth and ears,
when needed.

9. Co-operation with family physicians, local
hospitals, clinics, as well as with specialists.
10.Special care of employees working in painting,
welding and foundry sections where the risk of
their health is greater.
11.Maternity and child welfare, including family
planning.
12. Adequate ventilation, good lighting, tree planting
and good residential quarters.

II. Mental Health
In recent years, mental health of employees,
particularly that of executives, has engaged the
attention of employers. Three reasons may be given
for this development. First, mental breakdowns are

common in modern days because of pressures and
tensions. Second, mental disturbances of various
types result in reduced productivity and lower profits
for the organisation. Third, mental illness takes its
toll through alcoholism, high employee turnover, and
poor human relationships.

A mental health service is generally rendered in the
following ways:
1. Psychiatric counselling,
2. Co-operation and consultation with outside
psychiatrists and specialists.
3. Education of company personnel in the nature and
the importance of mental health.
4. Development and maintenance of an effective
human relations programme.
