Strong Workplace Relationships Reduce Injuries — Here’s How ActionOnsite Helps
A new study highlighted by Safety+Health Magazine shows that when employees have positive relationships at work, they are less likely to experience injuries or illnesses. Simply put: when people feel connected, supported, and valued, they’re more willing to speak up, follow safe practices, and look out for one another.
At ActionOnsite, this research confirms what we see daily in the field: safety is not just physical — it’s cultural. Building strong connections between team members and leadership is as important as ergonomics, body mechanics, and job-specific coaching.
What the Research Tells Us
Stronger relationships = safer outcomes. Employees with supportive managers and coworkers reported fewer health problems and injuries.
Trust drives reporting. Workers are more likely to share concerns and discomfort early when they know someone will listen.
Culture matters. A healthy workplace environment isn’t just about compliance — it’s about connection, communication, and care.
