As summer heats up, it's a great time to refresh your workplace safety knowledge. Whether you're overseeing construction crews, industrial operations, or training teams on site, OSHA-authorized education empowers you to prevent accidents before they happen.
Fourth of July Reminder: Let the Pros Handle the Fireworks
July brings celebration—and with it, increased risk around fireworks. According to the National Safety Council, thousands of people are injured by fireworks each year, including children. Even legal consumer fireworks like sparklers can burn hot enough to cause serious harm. Before your backyard celebration, brush up on important fireworks safety tips and share them with your team, family, and community. When in doubt, leave the fireworks to the professionals.
