Justification for recommendations
By implementing a risk management, security and safety strategy, the company stands to gain a lot both from the workers and clients.
Workers are encouraged to work harder and more efficiently when they know that their safety and security is valued.
On the other hand, clients want a fitness center where they feel secure, therefore increased profitability.
As for talent acquisition, the company stands to gain a competitive edge through their exceptional staff with excellent skills and abilities.
Through a remuneration incentive, the company should see this as a win-win strategy as what they stand to gain from motivating their workers is much more than what they will use as remuneration incentives.

This is a clear indicator that HR is an indispensable function in each and every organization. (Harzing & Pinnington, 2015).
