It is National Safety Month and what better way to promote and encourage workplace safety than with these promotional safety products and safety apparel. Read on to find out why the month was designated, the importance of workplace safety, and ideas on promoting workplace safety with custom apparel, promotional items, and more.
National Safety Month first started with the goal of making workplaces safe and promoting employee wellbeing. It is promoted by the National Safety Council, which seeks to educate businesses on steps they can take to eliminate workplace casualties and injuries and improve the health of employees in every industry. This year marks the 25th anniversary of National Safety Month. There is a specific focus on proactive safety measures, COVID concerns, feeling safe in the workplace, and continuous improvement.
Promoting workplace safety is beneficial for employees and employers and is essential for every industry. In addition to caring for the wellbeing of those in the workspace, workplace safety is also known to increase productivity, increase profits, and improve brand image. Educating employees on safe practices in the workplace supports a safety culture and is a fundamental part of ensuring workplace safety. A great way to promote workplace safety is by taking time throughout June to discuss any practices your employees should comply with and provide the right tools to help keep them safe.
We have outlined the four main themes of National Safety Month, which are divided by week. Below you will find lists of the perfect promotional products and apparel for each week, along with an explanation of each week’s topic:
Proactive preventive care is key to maintaining safety in any workplace. This entails identifying any risks and protecting employees with the right apparel and equipment to protect themselves, such as:
Although the COVID infection rates have decreased, it is still essential to take any necessary precautions to ensure the safety of your employees. By offering employees company COVID gear, you can help keep them safe.
Workplace conflicts can happen anywhere. However, they should never escalate to the point that employees feel unsafe. Promote workplace inclusivity and safety with products that help promote safety, camaraderie, and belonging.
Part of ensuring safety in the workplace is always looking for new ways to ensure employees' safety and well-being. From ensuring every employee has the tools and resources they need to protect themselves on the job to ensuring safety protocols are well known, there are many steps employers can take to improve safety conditions in the workplace, but the most important thing is to keep talking about it.
