Organizations across the globe are currently witnessing a radical shift in the workplace safety, health and environment aspects as part of the new normal towards business continuity. These aspects are becoming an integral part of the business operations driven by technological interventions, international benchmarks, evolving national legislative landscape and most importantly the overall value system of the organization. From what we see in India, progressive organizations are now transcending the compliance boundaries and focusing on building a comprehensive workplace safety and health approach as a value driver towards business excellence. They are providing robust health and safety systems, processes, equipment and training, thus empowering their employees to perform in a more sustainable and responsible manner. By virtue of valuing their human capital, these organizations are investing in systems, technology, processes and culture that culminate in a safe, healthy and comfortable working environment. This improves the operational efficiency, accountability and retention thus adding to the business’s overall performance excellence and reputation. Often, organizations fail to realize that the impact of an unsafe working environment in an office premise is as significant as that of manufacturing facility or factory. Typically, the presence of top management poses as a condition to demonstrate workplace safety as a commitment towards employees. However, ad-hoc measures or engagement activities are not sufficient in transforming the overall safety culture of the organization. A holistic and proactive approach is the need of the hour, to ensure that the employees plan, execute and monitor their work in a safe and sustainable manner. To address the importance of various components of Safety Bombay Chamber of Commerce and Industry has instituted awards on Office Safety in the year 2018.
