Workplace accidents can happen off or on the company’s premises. These incidents can also be the result of a third party’s negligent actions or recklessness. Although some accidents are not predictable, the employer and employee can take precautions to ensure a safe working environment. As an employee, you have the right to point out if you noticed that there are health or safety risks at work. Asking the right authorities to deal with these kinds of issues can help prevent negative outcomes such as workplace injuries and even death.
