Is an employee injury in the parking lot OSHA recordable? Maybe, possibly, most likely.

When was the last time you took a look at physical safety and security at your facility? Are gates working? What about cameras and intercoms? Do you have a Safety Committee comprised of co-tenants?

TWH explores opportunities to both protect workers from hazards and advance their health and well-being by targeting the conditions of work. Scientific evidence now supports what many safety and health professionals, as well as workers themselves, have long suspected—that risk factors in the workplace can contribute to health problems previously considered unrelated to work. So, look at the workplace and organizational conditions that may be contributing to worker health issues. Moreover, if you are struggling to get folks involved in wellness efforts, then first look at what workplace safety culture you have in place! Also, be on the lookout for an upcoming podcast episode about this topic. hashtag

Every day in the US, at least 9 people die, and 100 are injured in distracted driving crashes.

Ignore the distractions and #justdrive. Thanks
