Standards in occupational safety offer comprehensive guidelines for managing workplace hazards, minimizing risks, and safeguarding employee well-being. These standards promote best practices in safety management, helping organizations prevent accidents, comply with regulations, and cultivate a strong safety culture that enhances both protection and productivity.
