How To Save Cost

The costs of accident prevention are relatively easy to assess in comparison with the costs of accidents.

  • There are the design costs, such as those costs required to install machine guards to protect workers.
  • There are the operational costs, such as the costs of running a safety department ( e.g training, protective clothing, etc ).
  • There are the planning and consequence-limiting costs that refer to " safeguarding the future" as for example in the costs of environmental sampling or the costs of audits.
