The FOA public services union has developed a new tool to expose the monetary costs of poor working conditions. The union wants to use it to show the impact of stress, incorrect lifting and other health and safety problems can cost a workplace. FOA will use the tool to improve the working environment particularly in areas such as elder care, day care and in hospitals. The system will give an estimate of what the individual workplace can save money by dealing with safety problems like hard physical work, stress, working alone, noise, violence and so on. The information used in the tool comes from FOA member surveys and from international research.
