Remake of KWL Chart: Causes of work-related accidents and illnesses by khaled nassar https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6 A place to share what you know, want to know, and learned about a concept en-us 2022-09-11 16:37:45 UTC 2022-09-12 03:18:48 UTC hello@padlet.com Khaled Nassar kal341 https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291482989 Accidents can occur at any time, they are not intentional, and there are countless ways in which things can go wrong. However if you take specific safety measures to make sure that the most likely incidents won't happen, you can prevent many accidents. A worker's illness or injury not only affects him or her but also his or her family, coworkers, company, and society as a whole. In order to address these problem prevention programs are helpful. Many people may believe that illnesses and injuries at work are the result of carelessness and mistakes made by employees. However, it becomes evident that a variety of circumstances contribute to workplace accidents when employers examine a specific occurrence more closely.]]> 2022-09-11 23:24:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291482989 Jasmine kal341 https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291483291
Accidents are bound to happen at any job. Most jobs provide training for preventative measures and have protocols in place when they do occur. The job will be responsible for any accidents that occur and if you are a risk or don't follow the rules they will likely get rid of you.

Also, have always believed that chemicals are a major source of illnesses. I have witnessed people who have contracted fatal illnesses and the compensation given did not equal the damage caused to their health ]]> 2022-09-11 23:25:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291483464 khaled kal341 https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291483707 Do all employers fulfill their responsibilities in regards to causes of work-related accidents and illnesses? Employers have a responsibility to keep employees safe and inform them of health and safety risks that may affect them. They must also provide the employee sick pay, report specific events and accidents, and give them time off if they require it in the event of an on-the-job mishap]]> 2022-09-11 23:25:43 UTC https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291483707 Jasmine kal341 https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291483977 Why does it take for someone to get hurt or injured to access benefits that essentially belong to them anyway? Im sure a lot of people wouldn't be working where they work and that money could assist them in finding their passion.]]> 2022-09-11 23:26:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291483977 Afees kal341 https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291484097 I want to know how the extent to which employers should take responsibility of any accidents and illnesses. Also, I want to know whether there is a balance drawn between how dangerous work environment conditions exposes the staff to accidents and illnesses, and their negligence. I believe, in some way, there should be a balance. Every individual should hold a certain degree of responsibility.     ]]> 2022-09-11 23:26:23 UTC https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291484097 Khaled kal341 https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291484358 The most frequent workplace mishaps and their causes are two sides of the same coin. While it is true that there are instances of freak accidents harming people that could not have been prevented, it is also true that there would be significantly fewer instances of workers suffering serious injuries or fatalities while at work if hazards that frequently go unnoticed and unaddressed were not present. The most common causes include slips, trips, and falls from heights, violent crimes, being hit by a moving object, handling, lifting, or transporting.]]> 2022-09-11 23:26:58 UTC https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291484358 Jasmine kal341 https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291484451 I always knew that a certain level of stress was good.

Also, the failure of the organization to have a robust risk management plan in place, to correctly identify hazards and how to address them. Moreover, I have learned about the significance of a positive and comfortable work environment in the prevention of illnesses and accidents.  ]]> 2022-09-11 23:27:31 UTC https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291484578 Thomas https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291572072 I adhere to OSHA manuals and go through rigorous training for safety in my workplace. I believe that it is federally required for the training to be upkept and equipment to be updated and serviceable to maximize workplace safety. I know that accidents will happen, but the way training goes and the equipment put into place has safety functionalities that minimize risk. ]]> 2022-09-12 01:43:11 UTC https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291572072 Thomas https://padlet.com/kal341/k3orudmwetkbsre6/wish/2291574728 I would like to know what goes on behind the scenes once a workplace accident has occurred.
