Why are workers getting hurt in spite of safety standards, programs, policies, procedures, training, and possibly everyone’s best efforts?

If you’re in a leadership role, it’s essential to implement safety considerations that take age into account, so you can keep your employees safe on the job.

Safety professionals work tirelessly to ensure that nothing unexpected happens on the job – no injuries, no delays. Zero incidents.

Imagine this: Mental health days are offered. Paid mental health days allow you to take time off to attend to your mental health and well-being.
