INCLUSION AND OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY & HEALTH: NEW APPROACHES FOR BUSINESS

A four-part webinar series on inclusive approaches to occupational safety and
health (OSH)

Companies and their workforces thrive when diversity, equity, and inclusion
(DEI) are considered in their occupational health and safety agendas. Health and
wellbeing needs are not one size fits all. Rather, diversity within the
workforce requires tailored support to ensure all workers are safe and happy.
Businesses stand to gain by prioritising the differing health and wellbeing
requirements of their employees, with higher levels of employee satisfaction
leading to improved productivity, performance, and profitability.

The UN Global Compact Network UK is organising a four-part webinar series on
inclusive approaches to occupational safety and health (OSH). It will support
businesses to level up their OSH agendas and seize the opportunity by
emphasising the importance of DEI. The series will build upon existing
approaches to OSH and delve into issues relating to mental health, gender, and
disabilities in the workplace. Participants will develop a nuanced understanding
of OSH through a DEI lens and will gain the knowledge and practical tools to
address gaps in existing OSH policies and programmes within business.
