This week we take a pause with OSHA to recognize workplace safety gains, and pause to review our own workplace Safety and Health programs. We recommend signing up for the OSHA Safe & Sound week (August 9-15) series of nationwide events here: https://www.osha.gov/safeandsoundweek
During Safe & Sound week, employers are challenged to “Take 3 in 30” – implement three new safety measures in the next month to help your employees enjoy even greater safety. Employers are specifically encouraged to pick from these activities:
- Have daily conversations about safety with workers
- Walk the floor to identify safety hazards
- Host a safety meeting
- Write a company newsletter article about safety tips
- Spot workers who meet or exceed safety goals
- Allocate additional resources toward health and safety programs
- Find or become a safety mentor
- Establish or update a written safety and/or health policy
DII encourages our clients who are employers to make health and safety part of every workday. If you need help establishing a workplace safety plan, please contact your DII representative.
