Every single day company directors experience employees injuring themselves or being made ill by their work. This can be due to a number of different reasons such as lack of policies, lack of warehouse safety equipment or simply carelessness. These all impose ‘human costs’ as well as ‘financial costs such as loss of production due to absences and healthcare costs.
The latest figures show that annually between 2013/14 and 2015/16 an average of 622,000 workers were injured in workplace accidents and a further 528,000 workers suffered a new case of ill health which they believe to be caused or made worse by their work.
The cost of workplace injuries to businesses totalled £14.1 billion (that’s right BILLION!) in the year 2014/2015… that is £9.3billion due to illness and £4.8 due to injury.
