Home » $500K grant to help NSC speed adoption of workplace safety tech
The National Safety Council (NSC) has received a second $500,000 grant from the Pittsburgh-based McElhattan Foundation for the NSC Work to Zero initiative, launched last January to educate employers about technological safety advancements that promise to reduce and ultimately eliminate preventable deaths in the workplace. Since receiving the first grant last December, NSC has conducted research into emerging and existing technologies and will release a comprehensive report in February that details which technologies could reduce fatality risk in the most hazardous situations for workers. The report will be released in conjunction with the first Work to Zero summit, scheduled for Feb. 13-14 in Bonita Springs, Florida. Registration for the summit is open now.
NSC also plans to develop interactive and robust resources to help employers implement technologies and best practices.
