The workforce of any country, especially developing countries, is recognized as an important part of national capital and considered essential for economic and social development. Therefore, protecting the health of the workforce and optimizing the work environment is crucially important.
Health (H), Safety (S), and Environment (E) are three fundamental principles that form the basis of occupational health and safety regulations, with which the health of the workforce can be provided, protected, and improved.
