Hospitality and Entertainment Industries Vision Zero
About the H&EI Vision Zero
Workers in the accommodation, food and beverage, MICE, entertainment, and attraction sectors face demanding workloads. While they work hard to provide exceptional service to customers, we must also prioritise their safety, health, and well-being.
This is especially crucial in preventing downtimes and improving productivity, to ensure seamless operations amidst a fast-paced landscape. Companies need to remain vigilant and address common injury causes including slips, trips, and falls, burns and scalding, and accidental cuts.
Vision Zero (VZ) is the belief that all workplace-related injuries and ill-health are preventable, and that zero harm to staff and stakeholders is possible. Eight key industry associations and unions, representing the various H&EI sectors, kickstarted and launched the industry’s VZ cluster.
See the list of H&EI companies that have joined the industry’s Vision Zero cluster and are committed to the VZ Movement. Beyond pledging, they also shared their WSH practices and plans including:
• Putting in place near-miss reporting for WSH hazards and near-misses;
• Sharing about WSH with staff, contractors or partners; and
• Becoming a bizSAFE Partner/ Applying for bizSAFE
