The responsibility for ensuring that all materials are handled in accordance with safe work procedures lies with both the employee and the employer. This shared responsibility is crucial for maintaining a safe work environment.

Employees are expected to understand and follow the safety protocols established by their employer. This includes properly handling materials, using equipment safely, and reporting any unsafe conditions or practices they observe. By actively participating in safety measures, employees help create a safer workplace.

On the other hand, employers are responsible for developing, implementing, and communicating these safe work procedures. They must provide necessary training, resources, and support so that employees can perform their tasks safely. Employers also have a duty to monitor compliance with safety regulations and make improvements as needed.

This collaborative approach to safety ensures that all parties are engaged in promoting a safe work environment, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries on the job.
