Introduction
When workers and management are aware of hazards and work to improve
them, fewer accidents occur.
Safety committees promote employee involvement in workplace safety
programs and initiatives. Often comprised of management and members
from multiple departments, safety committees provide a link between the
employees who do the work and the managers that direct it.
The objective of this course is to assist in establishing and maintaining an
effective safety committee.
