Discussion Topic #2 -- Safety in the Workplace

Situation - Your company believes that "Safety" at work means more than the traditional meaning regarding physical hazards. Discuss in a short memorandum directed to employees from the perspective of the HR Manager, how your organization uses OSHA and the laws and regulations to look beyond just the physical concerns of the employee and to include other aspects of safety in the workplace. Consider including how the organization is dealing with the current Coronavirus pandemic.

Use a minimum of two HR/legal references to support your conclusions.
