Warehouse Safety Trends for a Safer Workplace in 2021
Creating a safe workplace for employees should be any business’s top priority. Looking ahead to 2020, here is what we forecast will be the big trends in workplace safety:
An increase in safety-focused personnel roles. With the increase in safety-awareness will come the need for more safety-specific personnel within organizations. In the past, managing the safety of employees had been housed within Human Resources, or assigned on a need-basis during an emergency (e.g. fire marshals). In the next year, we’ll see an increase in the creation of positions geared toward accessing and managing the safety and well-being of employees outside of the tradition HR wheelhouse. These positions include:
Safety Consultant/Engineer
Occupational Health and Safety Specialist
Safety/ Risk Manager
Healthy and Safety Instructor
