National Safety Month 2012

Each June, the National Safety Council sponsors National Safety Month to help companies raise safety awareness.  As a member of the National Safety Council and a company devoted to safety, we want to educate our employees on all the resources available from the National Safety Council during the month of June.

Each week carries a theme that brings attention to critical safety issues.  The themes for 2012 are listed below.  Click on each link to learn more about that subject:

Week 1: June 3 to 9 Employee Wellness

Week 2: June 10 to 6 Ergonomics

Week 3: June 17 to 23 Preventing Slips, Trips, and Falls 

Week 4:  June 24 to 30 Driving Safety 

Summer Safety

The goal of National Safety Month is to raise a public awareness of safety.  June also is an appropriate month to focus efforts on summer safety, as this season is traditionally a time of increased unintentional injuries, both on and off the job.  Each Wednesday during June, we will post Summer Safety Tip Sheets from the National Safety Council on the Gribbins Facebook page.

To kick off National Safety Month, here is the first tip sheet:  Making Smart Choices

Gribbins Insulation’s core values are: integrity, safety, quality, productivity, and innovation.  We hope that you will participate in National Safety Month by reviewing the resources on the NSC website,  reading the weekly summer safety tip sheets, and encouraging your friends and family to do the same.  We value our employees, and we want them to “think safety” on and off the job.
