One of the BEST videos (WorkSafeBC)


It doesn't matter what country or industry you're in this video shows Supervisors / Management how quickly an accident can change the dynamic of your company - I show it to my JHSC and Management and the response during the video is SILENCE and then "WOW" at the end.

It's based (sadly) on a true event.

Must watch Video about Distracted Driving. ***WARNING*** Senstive Viewers may be Offended.

The film that will stop you txting and driving

It’s all about Cassie COWan – a nice girl from a nice Gwent valleys family – who kills four people on the road because she used her mobile and lost her concentration for a few seconds.

So very tragic, it's important to inform/remind our employees that safety doesn't end once you leave work. We want their families to be safe as well!

I post helpful safety topics for the home very often at work! Employees appreciate it! Information is available through local Health Units and online.

Teenage drivers/new drivers need to watch it, watch it yourself, and then take a moment, before you reach for your cellphone while you're driving, ... and think of the consequences.

red exit lights vs green exit lights

I am wanting to know  if I should I buy red exit signs or green exit signs? Does OSHA care? Is there one that is more accepted in the mechanic industry? Thanks Mary
