Worker Well-being: A Holistic Approach to Safety and Health Engineering

: This study explores the evolving paradigm of worker well-being in the context of industrial and organizational environments. It highlights a shift from traditional occupational health and safety perspectives to a more holistic approach, emphasizing the integration of worker welfare into every aspect of organizational design. The concept of a 'Balanced Life System' is central to this approach, advocating for an equilibrium between career and personal life. This system encompasses various dimensions including mental and physical health, community involvement, personal development, and work-life balance. The research underscores the importance of addressing non-work aspects and promoting preventive health measures to enhance overall employee well-being. It also delves into the strategic implications of this holistic approach, linking employee well-being with organizational productivity, innovation, and sustainability. The study advocates for sustainable organizational design, emphasizing environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and economic viability. It calls for a comprehensive strategy that includes flexible work arrangements, transparent communication, and a culture that aligns with the organization's core values. The role of leadership in fostering this culture and the mutual benefits of a well-supported workforce are also examined. This research provides insights into the practical applications of a balanced life system, aiming to transform philosophical theories into concrete practices for improving worker well-being and organizational success.
