Going home safely.

Every year, almost three million people around the world die because of workplace incidents or work-related diseases. And those are the ones that are reported. Accidents and ill-health cast a long shadow and it’s critical for businesses and organisations to work collectively to reduce this number and keep employees safe.

Martin Cottam, LR’s Group Technical Assurance and Quality Director who also chairs the ISO Technical Committee for Occupational Health and Safety and James Pomeroy, LR’ s Group Health, Safety, Environment and Security Director discuss the situation today as the first in a series of interviews looking at why health and safety matters more than ever and what we can do to make the workplace safer for everyone.
