Safe + Sound Week is a nationwide event held each August recognizing the successes of workplace health and safety programs and offers information and ideas on how to keep America’s workers safe.
Successful safety and health programs can proactively identify and manage workplace hazards before they cause injury or illness, improving sustainability and the bottom line. Participating in Safe + Sound Week can help get your program started, energize an existing one, or provide a chance to recognize your safety successes.
All organizations looking for an opportunity to recognize their commitment to safety are welcome to participate. In 2021, more than 3,400 businesses helped to raise awareness about workers’ health and safety!
Organizers of Safe + Sound week include AIHA, VPP – Voluntary Protection Programs Participants’ Association, ASSP – American Society of Safety Professionals, OSHA, National Safety Council, CPWR – The Center for Construction Research and Training, and NIOSH – National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.
