Question

What are the merits of public participation in safety programme?

Answer 1

${\huge {\mathfrak {Answer :-}}}$

➡️ To be effective, any safety and health program needs the meaningful participation of workers and their representatives. Workers have much to gain from a successful program and the most to lose if the program fails. They also often know the most about potential hazards associated with their jobs. Successful programs tap into this knowledge base.

Worker participation means that workers are involved in establishing, operating, evaluating, and improving the safety and health program. All workers at a worksite should participate, including those employed by contractors, subcontractors, and temporary staffing agencies (see "Communication and Coordination for Host Employers, Contractors, and Staffing Agencies").

That's it..
