2 Compromiso de la administración y participación de los empleados
Estos son elementos involucrados: El compromiso de la administración provee de motivación y recursos La participación de los empleados permite a los trabajadores desarrollar y expresar su compromiso con la salud y la seguridad Management must be committed to safety and health protection as much as other organizational purposes. Management leadership and employee involvement are tied together because one is not effective without the other. A plant manager can be totally committed, but if employees follow blindly or are not involved, problems will only temporarily be solved. 2

5 Beneficios de los programas efectivos de Salud y Seguridad
Reducen las lesiones y enfermedades relacionadas con el trabajo Elevan la moral y la productividad Reducen los costos de compensación para los trabajadores Safety and health programs are recommended for all general industry businesses, but, at this point, are voluntary. Accidents are more expensive than most people realize because of the hidden costs. Some costs are obvious — for example, Workers’ Compensation claims which cover medical costs and indemnity payments for an injured or ill worker. These are the direct costs of accidents. But what about the costs to train and compensate a replacement worker, repair damaged property, investigate the accident and implement corrective action, and to maintain insurance coverage? Then there are the costs related to schedule delays, added administrative time, lower morale, increased absenteeism, and poorer customer relations. These are the indirect costs of accidents.

6 Instrucción en salud y seguridad
Tener en cuenta las responsabilidades de salud y seguridad de todo el personal Incorporarlas en los entrenamientos y en las prácticas y desempeño del trabajo Training is the backbone of this system. For management to lead, for personnel to analyze the worksite for hazards, and for hazards to be eliminated or controlled, everyone involved must be trained. The scope of the training depends on the size and complexity of the worksite and the hazards involved. Who Needs Training? - Target new hires, contract workers, employees who wear PPE and workers in high risk areas. Managers and supervisors should also be included in the training plan. - Manager training should emphasize their important role in visibly supporting the safety and health program and setting a good example. - Supervisor training should cover company policies and procedures, hazard detection and control, accident investigation, handling of emergencies, and how to train and reinforce training. - Long-term workers who have job changes as a result of new processes or materials. - The entire workforce needs periodic refresher training in responding to emergencies.
