An overview of each element is as follows: Management Commitment The management group within every organization must visibly support OSH efforts if they are to be successful. Leadership alone can make safety a key business goal and provide the necessary resources to achieve safety objectives. Employees within every organization take their cues from administrators, managers, and supervisors. If leadership consistently treats safety as a priority, so will the rest of the work group. Conversely, if employees do not sense a strong leadership commitment to safety then they may feel it is not worth focusing on during their daily activities. An important aspect of management commitment to OSH is the assignment of safety responsibilities throughout the organization. Each individual must have a clear understanding of what their role is within the overall OSH effort. This need is true regardless of the employee's job title or administrative level. Managers, supervisors, and front-line employees all have distinct safety responsibilities. Employees must understand these responsibilities and must be held accountable for meeting them by leadership. Employee Involvement Management must establish methods for employees to actively participate in OSH efforts. Employee involvement can provide the means through which employees develop and express a commitment to workplace safety. Employees who feel they are a part of the safety process are more likely to comply with established procedures and work cooperatively with management to resolve safety issues. Effective employee involvement also allows management to take advantage of the unique insights offered by their employees. An operator who runs the same piece of equipment on a production line every day is likely to be aware of specific hazards associated with that equipment or related work processes. These same hazards are not likely to be noticed by management or others who may simply pass by the work area occasionally. Viewing workers as the "experts" at their assigned tasks can yield tremendous benefits to the employer in the form of safety feedback.
