Safety committees play a crucial role in the identification and management of different workplace hazards. This session helps you broaden your understanding of all types of hazards, including psychosocial and organizational hazards, which are not always easy to recognize. Participants will learn about the Total Worker Health® (TWH) approach, a concept coined and supported by the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). Participants are also able to relate how current workplace programs and policies might (or might not) fit into the TWH approach and how this comprehensive approach can be used by safety committees to advance health, safety, and well-being at work more effectively.
