In fact, a safe living and working environment for workers is also affected by labor accidents, fires, occupational diseases, black credit, fraud or other illegal acts.
Therefore, building a safe working environment is not just about equipping "hardware" equipment such as helmets, shoes, protective gloves or requiring workers to comply with machinery operating procedures.
Building a safe working environment is also the formation of the ability to recognize risks, know how to prevent and know how to speak out when detecting signs that may cause unsafety for yourself and your colleagues.
More importantly, building a safe working environment must move towards forming habits and culture in each business, through training activities, so that each worker, each production team, each workshop can form "safe nuclei" - people who always proactively check equipment before working, remind colleagues to use protective equipment, report to managers when detecting fire and explosion risks or reflecting abnormal signs related to drugs, social evils...
The spirit of "safe kernel" is being aimed at by many businesses through safety training, safety networks, sanitation workers and encouraging workers to proactively identify and prevent risks.
Another issue is that unsafe risks for workers today are not only present in factories, workshops or boarding houses, but also come from cyberspace.
Therefore, building a safety culture also needs to expand to "digital safety", helping workers have skills to recognize unusual information, know how to prevent and seek support when encountering risks online.
For each worker to become a "safe nucleus", the role of the Trade Union organization is very important. Through safety training, trade union activities, safety networks, sanitation workers or dialogues at the workplace, the Trade Union can help workers identify risks, form self-protection skills and boldly reflect on unsafe working conditions.
Along with that, the Trade Union regularly updates new methods and tricks of fraud in cyberspace, guiding union members and workers on how to verify information, protect accounts, personal data and stay away from invitations to borrow money, invest or find jobs with unusual signs.
When businesses consider safety as a condition of production, workers consider safety as their own responsibility, and the Trade Union plays a good role in connecting, monitoring, and accompanying, the working environment will not only be safer but also become a place where workers can feel secure and stick with it for a long time.
And that is also an important foundation for businesses to develop stably and sustainably.
