Work Safe, Home Safe

Everyone's motivation for heading into work each day is different... family, vacations, friends, golf, status, or just paying the bills.

 

The list is long and varies throughout a worker's life. One thing we all have in common is the expectation that we will go home at the end of a day safe and healthy. This doesn't happen for the thousands of trucking industry workers that are injured each year on the job. However, communication between workers and employers, vigilance on the job, and the right equipment and policies can make sure an on-the-job injury does not happen at your company.

 

These posters remind workers and companies to address hazardous conditions before an injury occurs.
