Tagged with 'safety reminders'

A reminder is never a bad thing, especially when it comes to safety. In the workplace, there are plenty of potential dangers and hazards that can present themselves at any given moment. One of the best ways to avoid workplace injury is to be educated on your surroundings, equipment and materials. This allows you to recognize, become familiar with and identify dangers - often before they become a serious problem or cause injury or death.

In attempt to reduce the occurrence of workplace injuries, OSHA has created a complete lineup of 'Quick Cards'. Chances are you're familiar with these little reminders and you might even have a few (or many). In wither case, we've presented a short list of some of the most common OSHA Quick Cards. The links go directly to the respective quick card which is downloadable in .pdf format for quick & easy printing.

Check out the list, pass it around and share it with co-workers or others who can benefit from it. Additionally, feel free to print some out for yourself, your employees or your co-workers. It's always better to be safe than sorry. Even if you toss them on a dashboard, toolbox or inside a locker, they're still around as a constant reminder. They're easy to print, sized for convenience and could save your (or someone else's) life.
