Started as the National Safety Day, the Campaign has now been spread over a week. The Campaign is aimed at renewing the commitment of employees and the general public to working safely throughout the year. However, the ultimate objective is to ensure integration of Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) in work culture and lifestyle.
