For the best information about health and safety in your workplace ask the person there who is responsible for coordinating health and safety efforts. If you don't know who that is, ask your foreman, supervisor, or HR (personnel) person. If your workplace is very small, ask the manager or owner. That would depend on the location of your workplace and the industry or nature of your business. Say for example in the U.S., people working at construction sites can visit OSHA for their health and safety guidelines, people working in mining sites can visit MSHA for it. You just need to know what is the safety regulatory board in your location for your industry. Good news is that accessing information for workplace safety is very easy nowadays. You can take advantage of the internet to check out the safety rules and regulations for your area and your industry.
You can also contact the company that provides fire or workers compensation insurance, or check with a local chapter of a workplace safety professional society for guidance and referrals.
A business can find more information regarding workplace safety software on the 'UL Workplace' website where there is a guide to health and safety. Information is also available on 'Medgate'.
