Devising effective safety and health legislation is a very difficult process, but the problem cannot be avoided. There is no doubt that some legislation is essential for every country, since the state must act to protect the individual from the complex hazards involved in his/her work and provide ways of compensating him when an unpredictable or unlikely event occurs (Singleton, 1983). In all countries, both developed and developing, there are some forms of safety and health legislations or regulations. In many countries, all employees are supposed to be covered by employee safety services, legislations and regulations as stipulated by the International Labour Convention 161(1985). Employee safety is a crucial issue in the functioning of any industry or company. This is because without the safety of workers, the whole production could come to a halt and this could affect the income of employees, the profit of employers/management, the dividend of shareholders, the taxes of the state and could raise the scarcity of product demanded by the consumers. In this way devising effective, efficient and achievable safety, regulations and legislations should be the concern of all in industry, since this is the only way in which safe and healthy working environment can be guaranteed. It is also important to state that, the successful implementation of well developed safety regulations depend on the education and awareness of workers on such regulations, the effective compliance of workers with such regulations and the regular enforcement and inspection by the management and statutory enforcement agencies. Such industrial safety legislations are necessitated by the fact that, the individual workers are members of society and hence they need protection from workplace related hazards and accidents. This is based on the assumptions of the Human Relations School, which focuses on the behaviour of employees in group situations and how these workers should be treated as human beings to be protected against any hazard or accident in the factory which is a social system.
