Weegy: Under the OSH law, employers have a responsibility to provide a safe workplace. [ This is a short summary of key employer responsibilities: Provide a workplace free from serious recognized hazards and comply with standards, rules and regulations issued under the OSH Act. Examine workplace conditions to make sure they conform to applicable OSHA standards. Make sure employees have and use safe tools and equipment and properly maintain this equipment. Use color codes, posters, labels or signs to warn employees of potential hazards. Establish or update operating procedures and communicate them so that employees follow safety and health requirements. Employers must provide safety training in a language and vocabulary workers can understand. Employers with hazardous chemicals in the workplace must develop and implement a written hazard communication program and train employees on the hazards they are exposed to and proper precautions (and a copy of safety data sheets must be readily available). See the OSHA page on Hazard Communication. ] (More)

Weegy: The importance of employee benefits allows a company to reduce the turnover rate, or set an industry best safety record. For any HRM program to work you must first know what motivates your targeted employee market. [ Most employees aren’t motivated by the paycheck it’s the perks that go along with the paycheck. Obviously Motek has done a great job of this to have the “lowest turnover rate in the industry.” They understand there is more to it all than money. The desire of being accepted and appreciated is equally if not more important, and Motek has found ways to show its’ employees this and more. Giving them “paid lunches” communicates we care for your well being and appreciate your hard work. For me Intel has a descent perk package, from discounts at hundreds of locations, to 100% tuition reimbursement (only if you study in a field they want you to). But how can this be used in goals related to safety? Well an undistracted employee is less likely to be an unsafe employee. ] (More)

Weegy: Genentech and Zappos understand that respect for their employees is vital to their well being. [ In turn this only benefits the company’s well being and business because a happy employee is a happy person who then helps create a happy atmosphere. Genentech and Zappos use some additional benefits like child care, nap rooms and full-time life coaches. They tend to combine these with a ‘fun-loving culture”. In so doing, this motivates employees with high retention rate. ] (More)
