Organizations play a crucial role in establishing policies that promote employee compliance with safety requirements and protocols, ensuring a safe and healthy work environment, even during crises. A strong organizational framework prioritizes employee well-being, focusing on health and risk awareness tailored to specific departmental needs and workplace conditions. Human resource management practices significantly contribute to this climate of care. Key aspects include structured job design, comprehensive training, and development opportunities that empower employees. Implementing flexible work arrangements and promoting work-life balance enhance overall job satisfaction and productivity. Participation in decision-making processes fosters a sense of ownership and accountability among employees, further encouraging a proactive approach to health and safety (Hu, X., Yan, H. 2021, 102662).
Additionally, career development initiatives and wellness programs demonstrate an organizational commitment to employee growth and health. When employees see that their organization genuinely cares for their well-being, they are more likely to reciprocate with increased engagement and a heightened sense of responsibility towards the organization’s goals. Ultimately, cultivating a positive organizational climate not only boosts employee morale but also enhances safety and compliance. By investing in the health and safety of their workforce, organizations can create a resilient culture prepared to navigate challenges while ensuring the well-being of their employees remains a priority (Saks, A.M., 2022, 100835).
