Workplace safety refers to the proactive measures and practices implemented by organizations to protect the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of employees while they are on the job. It encompasses a wide range of policies, procedures, and initiatives designed to prevent accidents, injuries, and illnesses in the workplace.

Example
The regular inspection and maintenance of machinery in a manufacturing plant to ensure they are in good working condition. This prevents accidents and injuries that could occur if equipment were to malfunction. Additionally, providing employees with proper training on how to use machinery safely further enhances workplace safety.
