OSTS Inc.

Summer is still in session and temperatures are expected to climb this week 🔥🔥🔥 .

If your employees are working outside you’ll need to take some steps to help avoid heat illness:

☀️ Train supervisors and workers to control and recognize heat hazards.
☀️ Be sure workers are drinking plenty of water throughout their shift.
☀️ Frequent breaks, in the shade or air conditioning.
☀️ Encourage workers to wear light-colored clothing, a hat, and apply sunscreen.

Be sure to save the date: on September 21, grab a cup of coffee ☕️ and settle in for a webinar Q&A session with OSTS. Bring all your workplace safety questions and concerns.
Coffee will be on us for for the first 5 people who register AND attend the meeting. Register here: https://events.r20.constantcontact.com/register/eventReg?oeidk=a07ei64hlgh724e18b0&oseq=&c=&ch=

Providing safety training increases employee morale. People don’t want to work for a company that doesn’t seem to care about its employees. A bad reputation gets around – making it hard to attract new employees. It may also cause you to have to offer higher salaries to get the people you need.

A 2019 survey showed that 94 percent of employees would stay with an employer longer if the company invested in helping them learn.
