Reminder from Safety Committee: Be careful
Just a reminder from the university’s Safety Committee: Be careful out there. On-the-job injury accidents have skyrocketed this year. Three lost-time or restricted work duty accidents within a week have pushed the total number of injuries this year above last year’s total.
An accident is easily avoided if you are attentive and cautious when walking on wet floors or just about anywhere outdoors, especially this time of year. And be careful to always use proper bending and lifting techniques. You can find more good information about preventing slips, trips and falls at this site.
Be safe at work and at home. Take care to carve your turkey, not your thumb, and have a happy Thanksgiving.
