These resources can help:
Safe + Sound Week
OSHA’s Safe + Sound Week, August 12-18, is a nationwide event to celebrate the success of organizations who have implemented safety and health programs. In the Safe + Sound archives, you can view prior participants, partners, media, proclamations, and fact sheets from around the nation.
Be a leader
Creating an injury-free workplace takes everyone working together in a positive and supportive environment. On our safety and health website, you’ll find tools to help you establish a safety committee, practice safety leadership, identify hazards, respond to accidents, and more. Plan a 10-minute safety talk. Every month we post a new topic. Got a few minutes? Take our Safety Break quiz!
Take 3 in 30 Challenge
Getting the word out on safety within your organization can be easy and fun. Consider OSHA’s “Take 3 in 30 Challenge” where you take three actions in 30 days to demonstrate leadership in safety and health. Once your activities are complete, broadcast your success on social media or internally, then claim a challenge coin. Add some friendly competition by challenging others!
Get safety smart in 10 minutes.
