Results from the University and Research Institutions survey are presented in this chapter revealing what are the most common challenges faced by health and safety professionals, managers and researchers in these organisations. Barriers discovered are collated in five categories: physical, economical, organisational, behavioural and industry specific. Where appropriate this chapter directs the reader to a relevant chapter for further in-depth analysis. The appendix at the end of the chapter is a collection of feedback from survey responders on how workplace health and safety, in their view, could be improved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
