How This Affects You: You can be seriously injured by using common workplace tools incorrectly.
Workplace safety can be a complex issue, but learning and adhering to a few safety basics can go a long way toward keeping employees safe on the job. Many workplace injuries and fatalities are directly related to either not knowing how to do something and attempting it anyway or committing unsafe acts through inattention or for other reasons.
You?ve heard it before and you?ll hear it again because it?s a fact - seatbelts save lives. A high percentage of all work-related fatalities each year are caused by motor vehicle crashes. Many of these deaths could have been avoided if the drivers and passengers in these vehicles had been belted in.
Portable electric-powered tools can be indispensable. They can also be deadly. Each year, thousands of construction workers are injured using these otherwise handy tools.
How This Affects You: Workplace violence can happen to anyone, even you.
Your body has a marvelous ability to regulate its internal temperature through sweating and the cooling effect caused by the evaporation of sweat. But there are a number of factors that can interfere with this process and cause your body temperature to spike, resulting in heat illness.

Safety eyewear and face shields can save you from injuries which can lead to blindness. Prompt treatment of eye injuries reduces the risk of permanent damage.
In the US more than 15,000 people die each year from falls, placing falls second only to motor vehicle collisions as the leading cause of accidental death. In Canada, more than 1,800 people die as a result of falling each year. And across North America, tens of thousands of workers are injured in falls every year, with many of these incidents occurring from a height where fall protection measures should have been taken but weren’t.
It?s important to select and wear the correct PPE. It?s equally important that you inspect and care for the equipment properly, so that it will protect you when you need it!
They carry you through heat or cold, wet and slippery conditions. Your feet are also at risk from falling construction materials and equipment. No wonder wearing approved steel-toed boots can be required on the job.
As a maintenance worker, you are responsible for a lot - providing a steady flow of water, heat and cooling as well as upkeep of every part of the workplace.
Hearing loss is one of the fastest growing chronic conditions facing today’s workers, affecting nearly 30 million people in the United States and Canada. While there are many causes of hearing loss, noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is one of the most common types and it can affect anyone who is exposed to loud sounds or noise over a long period of time, whether at work or during recreational activities.
