Are You All In On Safety?

Worker participation is a core element of a workplace safety and health program. Effective safety and health programs tap into workers' collective experience, knowledge, and insight in order to find solutions to workplace safety and health challenges.

Engage workers in your safety and health program by taking the All In On Safety Challenge!

1. Identify a safety activity that helps build a more diverse and accepting workplace.
2. Recognize workers who participate with a certificate and appreciation card.
3. Download your virtual challenge coin and share your participation in your workplace or on social media using #AllinonSafety and #SafeAndSoundAtWork.

Protect Workers from Cold Stress

Winter weather presents hazards including slippery roads/surfaces, strong winds, and environmental cold. Employers must prevent illnesses, injuries, or fatalities, by controlling these hazards in workplaces impacted by winter weather.

OSHA has several resources to help businesses and their workers prepare for winter weather, and to provide information about hazards that workers may face during and after winter storms like the Protecting Workers from Cold Stress OSHA Quick Card available in  both English and Spanish.
