Total Worker Health is an area of emerging importance for safety professionals in which ASSP has designated a task force. When done right, the benefits to business and to employees include lower risk, collaborative employee-employer engagements and fewer injuries, ASSP says. In short, TWH can lead to a more sustainable workforce. The task force gave an overview of TWH on Wednesday, offering an insider update on their work.
Speakers were Jim Thornton, Vice President of Professional Affairs at ASSP, Kimberly Olszewski, Bloomberg University, and Sharon Kemerer, chair of ASSP’s task force on Total Worker Health.
