The importance of workplace safety is not a new concept by any means. Retailers have long acknowledged the importance of providing a positive, proactive safety culture that supports an environment where both employees and customers feel safe and secure. It reflects the attitudes, beliefs, perceptions, and values that employees share. It provides a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere for customers.
