Three easy steps to participate:
1) Select the activities you would like to do at your
workplace: A series of activity briefs covering the three core
elements of a successful safety and health program are available

ideas range from short term to longer term and vary in the time,
resources, and scope needed to complete them effectively.
2) Plan and promote your events: Templates for
invitations, newsletter articles, customizable posters and
banners,
and graphics are just a few of the available
resources. Once you decide to participate, make sure you
let your workers, suppliers, and customers know what you
are planning. You can also register your company to the
map on the www.OSHA.gov/safeandsoundweek.
