WORKPLACE SAFETY RESEARCH

Introduction
The research project is on the study of workplace safety. The concern about the topic is
due to the issues that having surrounding the issue of health and safety in several organizations.
There are several changes in the measures related to the workplace safety programs. Safety has
now become an integral part of the organization and has been a major determinant in the
company’s quality assurance systems. There has been pressure from different quarters on the
establishment of the link between productivity and performance in organizations and the
standard of health and safety employed in such organizations. This has been costs associated
with these issues. The costs have either the direct or the indirect effect on the organization. These
create the reason for conducting the research on safety in the workplace.
Management Dilemma
1
The management dilemma in this case is on how organization can be able to link
production and quality with the quality of safety in the organization. The issue of safety in the
workplace has become a common problem in all types of organization. The management has not
been able to address the issue in fullness or even come up with procedures and policies that will
ensure that they meet the threshold of improving the health and being able to relate it directly to
quality and production.

Review [Jon Webber]
National Research Council (U.S.) and Institute of Medicine (U.S.) (2009) conducted a
research to evaluate the occupational health and safety. The main aim was to come up with the
ways and the researches that directed towards enhancing the health and safety surveillance in the
organizations. The researchers look and evaluate different programs related to the health and
safety. The authors give recommendation that can help organizations understand whether they
meet the threshold for safety programs.

LaTourrette, Mendeloff and Rand Corporation looked at ways which organizations can
increase safety in the workplace. Using the RAND center as the vocal point for the research, the
authors place it clear that there is a relationship between improvement of understanding of the
health and safety and the workers in any organization. The authors show that there are monetary
benefits related to combining the two. These two articles show the need to have further analysis

[Jon Webber]
Ethical concerns
Ethical issues in a research are the norms that help the researchers to coordinate actions
or activities in the research to establish trust and discipline among the researchers. The research
will have some ethical concerns that will govern how to engage in the business research. They
2
are the ethical issues to govern the research. As a research, there appropriate to stand to the
ethical norms in the research.
2. to
This means what? [Jon
Webber]
Some of the ethical concerns include fabrication of information. It is likely that during
the research and data collection, some information found from different respondents or those
who give the information may have some fabrication and may not be in line with the required
information about the safety and health in workplace. Secondly, the information might include
some falsification with the lack of meeting the required standards used in representing the
research. The falsified information might also be a misrepresentation of research data. The
research data is however supposed to promote the truth and avoid any error resulting from such
unethical activities that the research comes across during the research. Responses coming from
employees, the management as well as other stakeholders may not present the whole truth or
3
falsification with the aim of hiding some information or rather for fear in case certain for not
meeting certain required standards.
The other concern will be on cooperation and coordination of the research process. In the
research, one will have to deal with different people in different disciplines and institutions with
the aim of getting to access different data from the institutions. Ethical standards will be essential

in promoting the values in the collaborative work (Goodwin, 2011). Additionally, these would
also be essential in promoting the trust among the members as well as accountability. In addition,
in a collaborative work there will be the requirements of issues like the mutual respect among the
members of the team as well as the fairness in dealing with each of the team or institutions.

The issue of copyrights, authorship and the patenting policies and data haring policies are
some of the regulations and standards that the research will have to contend with especially on
intellectual property interests (Landrum 2014). The researcher will also have to deal with the
federal ethical policies on research misconduct, conflict of interests as well as human rights and
social responsibility. The researcher will have to show being responsible in accordance to the
health and safety regulations and laws. Ethical lapses in research can significantly harm the
rights of the researchers as well as those of the researchers and the public as a whole.
Research Design
Some of the preliminary thoughts about the research design will give the dos and the
don’ts for the framework of the research. The design will therefore include choosing the topic as
selected, preparation of the proposal including background and significance to give the
background of topic as well as selecting the research design methods including the major
experimental challenges (Bernard, 2011). Design will also include the discussion of expected
results in the context of the hypothesis. This will help to include any conceivable data to the
research ensuring that the research is up to the standards. This will create the basis of
understanding the workplace safety. The safety research will include all the activities that relates
to such safety as well as the risks associated with the employees.

Hypothesis Testing

secondary data that can be of much important to the research. The researcher notes that the
secondary research data is also the crucial administrative data collected by the organization in
order to conduct the business in the correct manner. Some of the secondary choices of this data
include the workplace safety and insurance data collected in the course of administering
3
employee compensation. The data helps in authorizing the claims and collecting the employer
premiums for the threats and risks insured in the organization.
Secondary data for this research is readily available and it will be inexpensive to obtain.
It is an examinable type of information collected over a long period. The secondary data will be
important since it will help in verifying the hypotheses by looking at the trends associated with
the workplace safety concerns. The organization will have information on the workless have
been claiming compensation over period as well as the amount of time the workers have been
receiving their benefits.
It will also be good to look into the government statistical information including the
number of workers across a state or in a certain sector. This also includes data such as the risk
prepared of organizations as per the directives from the regulators and workplace safety
stakeholders. The health center record will also give such information that will be helpful for

verifying the research. The researcher needs to understand information coming from the
organizations lost time rates over the several years.
These types of data generally provide savings in cost and time and reductions in the
respondent burden. It is more effective than conducting the direct surveying or interviewing then
primarily data collection. The data in the secondary societies does not only cover a sample but
will cover the entire population.
The researchers need to obtain the data after the consent from the participating personnel
in the organization. However, the data from the secondary sources will have to meet the raised
threshold to ensure that it is certain the normality of having the information used to satisfy the
actions. The data from the secondary choices has to have some kind of privacy in it and therefore
protected unless people agrees for its usage (Collins, 2010). However, the research will have to
convince the people since such kind of data will be useful throughout the research. These will
also require harmonizing the research and privacy to ensure that the secondary data from the
sources provided will be useful and inexpensive to access and use to certify the hypothesis in this
case.
Additionally, the research using secondary data needs a formidable strategy and plan to
conduct a study; the research will need to submit the study protocol for ethical review to the
relevant boards in the organizations. This will ensure that the organization becomes aware of
such proceedings in the organization. It will include assessments of the benefits of conducting
the research, the risks involved through the research as well as the safeguards provided by the
methods used in the research. This is to protect the data confidentiality of the topic.

Having gone through the above explanation it is good to say that the data collected in this
mode will be useful through the research. Since it is the administrative data it will be more or
less like primary information, correct and meaning less of most errors that might exist in the
normal primary research. Since this is a quantitative research, the researcher may use any
different secondary types of data. The quantitative research uses numbers to help understand the
happenings. One has to be certain of the correlation between different types of statistics as held
in secondary sources (Vartanian, 2011). We will need to compare different work and health
information assessing issues such as work compensations, insurance among other issues. The use
of information mainly from the workplace safety and insurance board will help to test hypothesis
in a clear manner. It will help understand the severity of risks, the compensation duration as well
as the changing work environment and policy.
Measurement Benchmarks
1
There are different possible measurement benchmarks and scales used for hypothesis
testing in this research. The data from different sources used for the hypothesis testing must have
certain standards including high integrity, accountability as well as usefulness. The test must
meet the binary metric where the information passes the yes or no, acceptance or rejection
benchmarks. Information submitted must meet the required levels for acceptance or rejection and
considered as part of the hypothesis testing (Salkind, 2010). The selected information must
describe the context as well as explain the values existing in the organization together with
generating the suggestions for ways to improve the potential areas of research.
The results cannot be complete without including the measurement benchmarks and
scales since it is not good for over reliance on secondary data without the necessary verification.

The issue of copyrights, authorship and the patenting policies and data haring policies are
some of the regulations and standards that the research will have to contend with especially on
intellectual property interests (Landrum 2014). The researcher will also have to deal with the
federal ethical policies on research misconduct, conflict of interests as well as human rights and
social responsibility. The researcher will have to show being responsible in accordance to the
health and safety regulations and laws. Ethical lapses in research can significantly harm the rights
of the researchers as well as those of the researchers and the public as a whole.
Research Design
Some of the preliminary thoughts about the research design will give the dos and the
don’ts for the framework of the research. The design will therefore include choosing the topic as
selected, preparation of the proposal including background and significance to give the
background of topic as well as selecting the research design methods including the major
experimental challenges (Bernard, 2011). Design will also include the discussion of expected
results in the context of the hypothesis. This will help to include any conceivable data to the
research ensuring that the research is up to the standards. This will create the basis of
understanding the workplace safety. The safety research will include all the activities that relates
to such safety as well as the risks associated with the employees.

These types of data generally provide savings in cost and time and reductions in the
respondent burden. It is more effective than conducting the direct surveying or interviewing then
primarily data collection. The data in the secondary societies does not only cover a sample but will
cover the entire population.
The researchers need to obtain the data after the consent from the participating
personnel in the organization. However, the data from the secondary sources will have to meet
the raised threshold to ensure that it is certain the normality of having the information used to
satisfy the actions. The data from the secondary choices has to have some kind of privacy in it
and therefore protected unless people agrees for its usage (Collins, 2010). However, the research
will have to convince the people since such kind of data will be useful throughout the research.
These will also require harmonizing the research and privacy to ensure that the secondary data
from the sources provided will be useful and inexpensive to access and use to certify the
hypothesis in this case.
Additionally, the research using secondary data needs a formidable strategy and plan to
conduct a study; the research will need to submit the study protocol for ethical review to the
relevant boards in the organizations. This will ensure that the organization becomes aware of
such proceedings in the organization. It will include assessments of the benefits of conducting

Having gone through the above explanation it is good to say that the data collected in
this mode will be useful through the research. Since it is the administrative data it will be more
or less like primary information, correct and meaning less of most errors that might exist in the
normal primary research. Since this is a quantitative research, the researcher may use any
different secondary types of data. The quantitative research uses numbers to help understand
the happenings. One has to be certain of the correlation between different types of statistics as
held in secondary sources (Vartanian, 2011). We will need to compare different work and health
information assessing issues such as work compensations, insurance among other issues. The
use of information mainly from the workplace safety and insurance board will help to test
hypothesis in a clear manner. It will help understand the severity of risks, the compensation
duration as well as the changing work environment and policy.

There are different possible measurement benchmarks and scales used for hypothesis
testing in this research. The data from different sources used for the hypothesis testing must
have certain standards including high integrity, accountability as well as usefulness. The test
must meet the binary metric where the information passes the yes or no, acceptance or
rejection benchmarks. Information submitted must meet the required levels for acceptance or

other researches in the long-term.
