Companies across the globe work on Safety and Health conditions and amenities for workers in different ways according to the industry they work in. The emphasis of Safety at workplace gets amplified in the Infrastructure Construction and Realty Sector due to the precarious nature of work which is carved out for construction teams. The most reliable companies stress heavily on creating a glitch-free setup for workers to work with zero stress.

The leadership needs to focus on sudden global shifts like widespread outbreak of a virus like COVID-19. The management needs to develop practices that not only prevent hazards but also deal with accidents and damages that occur with no notice.
Another crucial component of creating a safe work environment is paying attention to the changing needs of global environmental challenges and adapt to practices that promote a more sustainable development.
