I’m certain you’ve spent the last 12 months gearing up for Wednesday, right?

Wait. You don’t know what’s happening Wednesday? Really? So soon they forget…

Okay. If you need a reminder, here it is:

Wednesday, May 12 is Safety Break for Oregon Day.

And you should be spending at least a few minutes thinking about how YOU can be a part of making your workplace a little safer.

Whether you celebrate at 10 a.m. or make it a 3-day observance, host a safety fair or give out safety awards, we hope you’ll participate. You can even make it fun with a PPE fashion show (!), hazard scavenger hunt, raffle or game.

Need more ideas for a safe workplace? How about getting your employees trained in CPR? Or picking up an office preparedness kit?

Feel free to share what you’ll be doing in the comments…whatever you come up with, we’re sure this is one break that your boss will approve.
