The Zika virus has recently emerged as a disease of significant public health concern. Currently, a large outbreak is occurring in South America and moving up into North America. The virus has the potential to spread anywhere that mosquitoes capable of spreading the virus are found.
Working in cold weather can have a chilling effect on your body. You are at risk for impaired motor function, impaired judgment and cold stress injuries and illness.
Swimming and boating are staples of summer fun. The fun can quickly turn to tragedy though, when water and boating safety are thrown overboard. On average, 1,000 people die in boating-related accidents every year in North America and thousands more are injured. Additionally, more than 3,500 unintentional drownings, not related to boating, happen each year. The majority of these deaths are preventable.
Weather can affect your safety both on and off the job. Even if you don't work outside, just getting to and from work in bad weather can be hazardous.
There is a direct link between environmental protection and your personal safety.
