Great Britain Launches Safety Strategy
In June, Great Britain’s Health and Safety
Executive (HSE) released details of a new
strategy for improving occupational health
and safety. The goals of the strategy are to
reduce work-related fatalities, injuries and
illnesses; motivate employees, employers
and regulators to improve health and safety;
and ensure accountability for failures of occupational health and safety.
HSE is the national regulatory body responsible for promoting occupational
health and safety in
Great Britain.
The strategy calls
for employers, manufacturers, suppliers,
workers, third-party
organizations, and
authorities to work
together to improve occupational health and
safety.
Great Britain has the lowest average rate
of work-related fatal injuries in the European Union. Preliminary statistics for 2007–
2008 show that 229 British workers died on
the job, while more than 136,000 were seriously injured. An additional 2.1 million people suffered from occupational illnesses.
For more information on the HSE strategy,
