unsafe working conditions
Unsafe working conditions refer to environments where employees are exposed to hazards that can cause injury or illness. These hazards can include physical dangers, such as machinery without proper safety guards, or environmental factors like toxic chemicals that are not properly handled. Poor lighting, inadequate ventilation, and cluttered workspaces can also contribute to unsafe conditions.
Additionally, unsafe working conditions may involve a lack of proper training or safety equipment. For instance, if workers are not provided with personal protective equipment (PPE) like helmets or gloves, they are at greater risk of accidents. Employers are responsible for ensuring a safe workplace to protect their employees' health and well-being.
