Here are three reasons :
When I was in primary school a boy in my class kept tipping his chair back and the teacher took no notice. One day he tipped back too far, the chair fell and he broke his neck, dead in a second.
One of my children picked up nits and body lice at nursery school because the people in charge didn't notice that one of the kids was being abused and was always scratching.
MRSA at hospitals due to lack of careful hygiene (washing hands etc by the staff there) had caused and is still causing hundreds of unnecessary deaths.

1. For the employee
2. For his/her colleagues
3. For the public
When someone wilfully refuses to adhere to health and safety regulations, he/she doesn't only fail him/herself (We are all responsible for our own saftey and that of others) but also risk to put a work mate at risk and anyone who happens to be there as well.
Sadly many people still believe in taking short cuts, do not think about their own safety, that of others, reason why we still see too many accidents at work.

You won't get sued by people hurting themselves if you're up to date on health and safety

The reasons are myriad and multi-faceted. (oh, yeah. They are also so obvious that anyone could figure that out).
Finish your own homework.
