OHS Preparedness in the Eastern Region: Trends & Analysis
CII-Consultivo Knowledge Report

Several case studies show that good OSH management in a business is linked to improved performance and profitability. A safety-oriented workplace reduces accidents and ill health of the employees, thereby increasing their productivity and efficiency. It enhances motivation, cooperation and morale in the workforce and minimises unplanned costs incurred on account of the health issues inflicted upon the employees.
The CII-Consultivo Knowledge Report on OHS Preparedness in the Eastern Region: Trends & Analysis was launched at the CII Safety Symposium & Exhibition on 25 August 2021.
According to International Labour Organization (ILO), occupational accidents or work-related diseases cause more than 2.78 million deaths per year. Moreover, some 374 million non-fatal work-related injuries every year result in four days of absences from work. ILO further suggests that the economic burden of poor occupational safety and health practices is around 4% of the global Gross Domestic Product each year.
Efforts have been made to make a rapid assessment of the occupational health and safety practices followed by the industry in the Eastern Region. The study makes an attempt to assess the efficacy of the OHS practices on several determinants, such as leadership, governance, safety parameters, and health and hygiene practices.
The company assessment data collected by CII from four sectors, viz., services, manufacturing, mining, and construction, have been used for the analyses. This study identifies the determinants facilitating the OHS practices and those needing improvement at sectoral levels.
Safety is for all. There’s no confidentiality in it. This is an initiative by Consultivo to spread awareness, motivation & specialised knowledge. Consultivo aims to empower people enabling loss prevention.
