A Study on Effectiveness of Safety Measures in Keshava Medi Devices Pvt. Ltd., Renigunta
Subject area: Management and Commerce · Area of research: Effectiveness of Safety Measures
Abstract
This study focuses on analyzing the effectiveness of employee safety measures at Keshava Medi Devices Pvt. Ltd., Renigunta. Employee safety is a crucial aspect in manufacturing industries, especially in the medical device sector where workers are exposed to machinery, electrical equipment, and other operational risks. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the existing safety policies, employee awareness about safety practices, usage of personal protective equipment (PPE), and the effectiveness of safety training programs. The research is based on a descriptive research design. Primary data was collected from employees through structured questionnaires and personal interviews, while secondary data was gathered from company records and relevant literature. A sample of employees from different departments such as production, quality control, maintenance, and administration was selected using stratified random sampling. The findings of the study reveal that the majority of employees are aware of safety policies and follow safety rules in the organization. The company provides adequate PPE and conducts regular safety training programs. Most employees feel safe at the workplace, and management actively monitors safety practices. However, a small percentage of employees reported workplace accidents, indicating the need for continuous improvement. The study concludes that while the organization has effective safety measures in place, regular training, strict implementation of safety rules, and periodic safety audits can further enhance employee safety and reduce risks.
