Occupational accidents and work-related diseases have a major impact on individuals and their families, not only in economic terms, but also in terms of their physical and emotional well-being in the short and long term. Furthermore, they can have major effects on enterprises, affecting productivity, leading to potential disruptions of production processes, hampering competitiveness and reputation of enterprises along supply chains, and impacting the economy and society more widely.

As an employer, you are legally obliged to identify and manage any health and safety risks in your workplace. Your insurer can help you understand and manage these risks, and can pay out on claims if incidents do occur.

Under civil law, organizations have a general duty of care towards their employees and people they deal with in the course of their activities. If someone is injured or their property is damaged as a result of an organization’s activities, the injured person may be able to make a compensation claim against the organization. Insurers play a major role in helping organizations protect against and manage health and safety risks by providing advice and guidance on assessing and managing risk, and incentivizing good behavior.

The British Academy for Training and Development offers training programs to address these critical issues and promote workplace safety.
