Abstract This paper focuses on occupational health and safety of employees in the workplace and the laws so implemented. Occupational health and Safety is an integrated field that is concerned with the health, safety, and welfare of workers in all jobs. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) was found in 1970 as a result of the realization that all employees should have a reasonable expectation of safety at work. Occupational safety and health have grown to be a top concern for stakeholders when it comes to caring for the human resources because of the huge number of accidents and exposures that take place in all types of workplaces and the effects that these have on workers' organizations, society, and nations. This article addresses various policies that were implemented to guide the stakeholders. Further, this paper examines the development in the area of occupational health and safety in India. It also brings up light on the facilities that is brought up in the field of occupational health like the occupational hygiene, occupational medicine, etc. Finally the article ends by recommending to enhance the occupational risks for immigrants. Since Occupational health and safety are less concerning and not being discussed much, it has to be given attention.
Keywords Occupational health, Safety, Legislation, Work Environment, Infrastructure, Immigrant workers, Recommendations, Non- Immigrant Workers.
