"Safe + Sound Week is a nationwide event to recognize the adoption of programs to improve workplace safety and health. Implementing a safety and health program can improve your workplace’s safety and health performance.
Successful safety and health programs can proactively identify and manage workplace hazards before they cause injury or illness, improving sustainability and the bottom line.
