In today's work environment, occupational health and safety are essential for fostering a safe and efficient workplace. The significance of this issue is growing as new technologies and methods emerge across various sectors. Organizations strive to balance productivity with worker safety, recognizing that employee well-being is crucial for maintaining operational efficiency and continuity.
