National SAFER Workplace Day

tec.nicum, the engineering services of division of the Schmersal Group, founded National SAFER Workplace Day. It is an officially registered national day which occurs on the last Friday of June. It was established to create awareness about the SAFER Workplace, with a heightened focus on machine safety to reduce the potential of near misses, accidents, and injuries. 

The inaugural National SAFER Workplace Day was Friday, June 30th, 2023.

The next National SAFER Workplace Day will be Friday, June 28, 2024

 

How to participate:

Machine safeguarding consistently remains among the top 10 OSHA violations yearly. Our goal is to provide machine manufacturers and end-users with the proper tools to help create a safer workplace. 

Let’s support this event by learning about the importance of a safe workplace. Take out time to assess your workspace and pinpoint any task, process, or equipment that could jeopardize your workplace and your safety.

Here are several ways you can participate in National SAFER Workplace Day:


Acknowledge a coworker or employee for following safe practices.

Acknowledging a coworker or employee for doing their job in a safe manner not only boosts morale and fosters a positive work environment, but also reinforces the importance of safe practices and encourages continued vigilance in maintaining a safe workplace for all.
 


Make a safety tips list.

List 3 ways in which you can perform your job safer. Share with your safety officers to see if they can be implemented and participate in the change.
