National Safety Month and EHS Resources for Businesses and Institutions
Clark Seif Clark provides industrial hygiene and environmental, health and safety (EHS) testing, monitoring, consulting and training services to protect workers and to help keep companies in regulatory compliance.
All year long, our industrial hygiene and environmental, health and safety professionals help employers protect their workers and communities by offering services to support their OSHA and Cal-OSHA compliance efforts.
The month of June has been recognized as National Safety Month since 1996. The National Safety Council established the month-long observance as a time for organizations, companies and individuals to increase awareness of workplace safety and health risks, and to make efforts to reduce occupational injuries, illnesses and deaths.
Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, which created the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), employers have a responsibility to provide a safe workplace for all of their employees. Despite this fact, as recently as 2021, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports that there were 5,190 fatal work injuries recorded in the United States, with a worker dying every 101 minutes. BLS also states that private employers reported 2.6 million nonfatal workplace injuries and illnesses, including 1,062,700 nonfatal injuries and illnesses that caused a private industry worker to miss at least one day of work, that same year.
Weekly topics for this year’s National Safety Month include:
- Week 1 – Emergency Preparedness
- Week 2 – Slips, Trips and Falls
- Week 3 – Heat-Related Illness
- Week 4 – Hazard Recognition
