The workers who do not compromise on poor safety
practices should be duly rewarded not only in cash but also
acknowledge through the media to encourage the other
employees.
Both internal and external safety auditing must be
conducted unannounced in order to increase compliance
level so as to produce the best results.
Workers who do not comply on safety rules should be
sanctioned immediately without compromise.
