Workplace safety is a shared responsibility. However, making sure that the safety needs of both workers and management are aligned can sometimes feel like a tug-of-war. That’s where safety committees come into play — acting as a bridge between workers and management to reduce workplace hazards, promote open communication, and develop practical solutions.
