Every
hard working individual understands the importance and benefits of work- it
provides us, as members of society, with financial gain, a means to put food on
our family dinner table, and also provides us with a sense of belonging, as we
feel that we are contributing to the development of our community. But how good
are really the benefits of work when you have to put yourself in hazardous and
dangerous areas in order to achieve it?
Unfortunately,
even though machinery has helped remove numerous hazards from work spaces and
in so protected the workers, there are still work environments that are in
serious need of health andsafety consultants as
well as in need of hazard
identification. These work environments include construction of
buildings, mining industries and more.
These
health and safety hazards could be easily dealt with and removed by businesses
and organizations providing the work project to the employees, but,
unfortunately, there are many heads of organizations who are ignorant of these
potential hazards, may consider safety
inspections redundant, or may even believe these regulations to be an
extra expense that they can ignore. Sadly, this mentality is quite common, and
should be confronted as quickly as possible. But who would have the authority
to confront the heads of such large corporations and force them to understand
the possible risks they may pose on their workers?
One
such company that has stepped up and provided workers of these corporations
with a backbone is Pinpoint Health and Safety. This company started out in Cape
Town, and through spreading their awareness and influence has been able to not
only improve numerous organizations' health and
safety standards, but has also been able to expand to other big cities
in South Africa to help as many workers as they can.
Pinpoint
Health and Safety has thought of numerous convenient packages for organizations
to choose from, in which workers would be trained on how to act in emergency
situations, and how hazards should be handled if that is the case. They also
provide workers with basic first aid training to help their co-workers in case
of emergencies. Pinpoint Health and Safety also puts in great efforts to train
and educate health and safety consultants, who will be sent to the workplaces
to provide safetyinspections and hazard identifications, and overall ensure the
safety and security of the hard-working employees working for these
organizations.
Pinpoint
Health and Safety have shown compassion and empathy towards areas of work that
have always been regarded as high-risk, and in doing so, have provided the
workers and their families with a guarantee of safer working conditions, and a
safe return back home. By providing that safety net for the workers, Pinpoint
Health and Safety has been able to promise these workers financial gain with
minimum safety hazards.
