Safety Tip of the Week 🦺

Near misses matter.

A near miss is an incident that could have caused injury or damage—but didn't. Reporting near misses helps identify hazards before someone gets hurt.

The next time you spot a close call, don't shrug it off. Reporting it today could prevent an accident tomorrow.

Safety isn't just about reacting—it's about preventing.

Happy National Picnic Month!

If your team packed a picnic lunch, who would be most likely to...

🥪 Bring way too much food?
🎵 Be in charge of the playlist?
🏐 Start a game?
😴 Fall asleep under a tree?

Tag the coworker (or yourself!) who fits each category.

For our team, we are picking Laurel to bring too much food, Katie will have the playlist going and April is definitely napping under the tree.😄
