Health & Safety Committees

EOSH Module 27

A joint health and safety committee is a forum for putting the internal responsibility system into practice. The primary purpose of the committee is to facilitate communication on health and safety issues.

An effective committee will help reduce losses associated with accidents and occupational illness. Another significant benefit is the enhancement of cooperation between all parts of the workforce in solving health and safety problems.
