Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) is a discipline focused on protecting employees, employers, and visitors from workplace hazards and promoting a safe and healthy working environment. It combines safety management, health protection, risk control, and regulatory compliance to prevent accidents, injuries, and work-related illnesses.
OHS applies to all sectors — including construction, healthcare, education, agriculture, manufacturing, and offices. It ensures that workplaces identify potential risks, implement preventive measures, and create systems that promote safety culture.
