Plan your safety year
Every major workplace safety month, week and day in one place, with activity ideas and links to the terms your crews need to know.
Test basements, tunnels and below-grade workspaces for radon.
Inspect every ladder on site and tag out damaged ones.
Share your phone-free driving policy with every driver.
Check high-visibility gear and traffic control plans.
Pause to remember workers lost on the job and the lessons learned.
Stop work for a fall protection talk and gear check.
Walk through lockout procedures on your highest-risk equipment.
Remind crews where to find support and how to check in on each other.
Show off a safety program win and recognize the people behind it.
Run an evacuation drill and test your emergency roles.
Share crisis resources, especially in construction and remote work.
Fit-test earplugs and review noise monitoring results.
Review shift lengths and journey plans for long drives.
Remind drivers of your fitness-for-duty policy before the holidays.
One page to pin in the break room, plus a reminder email two weeks before each observance so you have time to plan.
A month, week or day set aside by a government agency or industry group to focus attention on one hazard or practice, such as falls, fire prevention or hearing loss.
Pick four to six observances that match your biggest risks, then plan a crew briefing, inspection focus or stand-down around each one.
The organizer announces those dates each year. We update the calendar as soon as they are confirmed.
