DuPont Sustainable Solutions addresses off-the-job safety in new training program
DuPont Sustainable Solutions has released a new training program that emphasizes the importance for employees to protect themselves and their loved ones at home. Take Safety Home shows that employees are three times more likely to get hurt off the job than on it and 11 times more likely to die from a non-work related injury than a job-related one.
The program adapts standard workplace safety practices to a home setting, covering the use of personal protective equipment; chemical handling and storage; the safe operation of power tools; fire prevention and management; back safety; and slips, trips and falls.
