Occupational safety and health is the discipline concerned with protecting the safety , health and welfare of employees, organisations, and others affected by the work they undertake (such as customers, suppliers, and members of the public).
The primary, and arguably most prominent reason for occupational safety and health (OSH) standards are moral - an employee should not have to expect that by coming to work they are risking life or limb, and nor should others affected by their undertaking.
OSH standards are, generally speaking, further reinforced in both civil law and criminal law ; it is accepted that without the extra "encouragement" of potential litigation, many organisations would not act upon their implied moral obligations.
