Employees must be able not only to recognize hazards, but also to mitigate hazards that put them at risk of injury. Safety claims or slogans alone do not prevent accidents, but are another tool in the proverbial safety toolbox. Using safety messages throughout the workplace, or as an extension of a deeper safety initiative that has been implemented, can be an effective way to remind workers of important safe work practices. Be creative with the messages you want to share with your employees.
