Do you know your people? 5 ways to assess their well-being
Eat, sleep, work, play and love are the five typical activities of daily living, according to Dr. Raymond Catton. Each has a connection to workplace safety. Let’s examine.
Safety pros talk all the time about the importance of employee engagement, but how do you get engaged workers when 85 percent of workers worldwide admit to hating their jobs, when surveyed anonymously in a 2017 Gallup poll. OK, maybe “hate” is too strong a word. But it’s fair to say they are dissatisfied. In the U.S. “only” 70 percent hate their work. Most – 62 percent – are described as not engaged, meaning they go through their days on autopilot, a kind of sleepwalking. Obviously sleepwalking through a construction site or factory carries all sorts of risks.
