Safety Works For Everyone

Whether it's in the office or the industrial plant, the nursing home or the construction site, safety needs to be the first priority. And whether your job is full-time, part-time, seasonal, casual, temporary or permanent, whether you are on straight days or rotating shifts, staff or contract worker, safety must be your priority.

Your employer is responsible for providing a safe workplace, for informing you of job hazards and training you to avoid them.

Your responsibility includes learning this information and applying it to getting your job done without injury.

Make sure you understand:

• The risks associated with your job
• The safety practices, procedures and rules to prevent injury to you and others
• How to report unsafe conditions and practices
• What to do in an emergency

If you do not understand, ask your supervisor for this very necessary information.
