Description

All types of work are hazardous and persons at work are exposed to situations that may result into injury, disease or even death. While the economic cost is high, public awareness of safety and health tends to be quite low. All too frequently the subject does not get the priority it merits and the health sector is no exception. Workplace refers to any situation or location where an individual is involved in meaningful employment to earn a living. It covers both the formal places such as health facilities and offices; and the informal places such as the home, when health workers go to provide outreach services.
