Unsafe Households Impact on Worker Productivity

Hi everyone.

With the new year well underway and the kids back at school, I wonder if productivity in the workplace is increasing or decreasing.

If we go home stressed or contaminated with by-products of our job, what impact does that have upon our family members?

Workplace health and safety generally focusses on workplaces, and as a result we tend to overlook the home.

How many lost time injuries or illnesses are attributed to accidents or illness in the home?  

If the kids get sick or are injured, commonly, one of the parents will have to take time off work.

We can't really legislate or police health and safety at home, nor should we.  I'm merely suggesting that some lost time can be prevented if we took our safety message home.  Are there any companies out there that are pro-active in this regard?

What are your thoughts?
