The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is joining businesses and organizations nationwide to recognize the importance and successes of workplace safety and health programs during Safe + Sound Week: August 12-18, 2019.

The week-long event encourages employers to implement workplace safety initiatives, and highlight workers’ contributions to improving safety. Businesses that incorporate safety and health programs can help prevent injuries and illnesses, reduce workers’ compensation costs, and improve productivity.

Participating in Safe + Sound Week can help get your program started, energize an existing one, or provide a chance to recognize your safety successes. Learn more about how to help plan and promote safety and health plans.
