Employees will gain a better grasp of their responsibilities and roles as a result of the OSH training/seminars, which will boost their confidence. This self-assurance will boost their overall performance, which will benefit the organization. The production costs per unit, turnover and employees compensation rates decrease as productivity, profits, and competitiveness will rise.
