Your Safety is Not a Privilege. It is a Legal Right. We Enforce It.
Every worker has the fundamental right to return home safe and healthy at the end of the day. KWRHP’s Health & Safety Protection pillar exists to hold employers accountable to this basic promise. We leverage the full power of Kenyan law—including the Work Injury Benefits Act (WIBA) and the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA)—to ensure your workplace is not a site of danger and exploitation.

Our Services: Your Shield Against Harm
We turn legal statutes into tangible protection with a full suite of services:
-
Workplace Safety Audits & Inspections: Our experts will assess your worksite for hazards—from faulty machinery to chemical exposure—and document violations of OSHA standards to force employer compliance.
-
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Advocacy: If your employer fails to provide necessary gear (masks, gloves, boots, helmets), we demand immediate provision as mandated by law.
-
Work Injury Benefits Act (WIBA) Claims Assistance: If you are injured on the job, we navigate the complex WIBA process for you to secure the medical coverage and compensation you are entitled to by law.
-
Medical Emergency Support & Referrals: For immediate injuries, we provide guidance and connections to healthcare services, ensuring you receive proper care without delay.
-
Disease & Hazard Exposure Reporting: We help you report long-term health threats like pesticide exposure or repetitive stress injuries, which are also covered under Kenyan law.
The Legal Foundation of Your Safety
Our work is empowered by the Constitution of Kenya and key legislation:
-
The Constitution of Kenya (2010), Article 43(1): Guarantees every person the right to the highest attainable standard of health, which includes healthy and safe working conditions.
-
The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA, 2007): Places a direct legal duty on every employer to ensure the safety, health, and welfare of all employees.
-
The Work Injury Benefits Act (WIBA, 2007): Provides a system of compulsory insurance for all employees, ensuring they receive compensation for injuries or diseases sustained in the course of their work.
