<h1>Health and Safety Workshops
</h1><p></center></center>
<p><b>Do you think that safety equipment and training only apply to industrial or construction sites?  
Consider these hazards:</b><ul>
<li>Slip and fall injuries rate high among young workers.  Think about that when you are asked to clean 
the washroom or mop the floor.  What     precautions are you taking?
<li>Burns are especially common for individuals working in kitchens.  How do you work safely around hot 
appliances?
<li>Can you be seen?  If you work around moving vehicles, (collecting carts in a parking lot or unloading 
trucks) do you wear a safety vest?  
<li>When you are stocking shelves, landscaping, or moving heavy objects do you know how to lift safe?  
<li>Painting and working with solvents requires a well-ventilated area or special mask.  Are you inhaling 
dangerous chemicals?
<li>Unguarded machinery can result in serious injury.  Are you working around a dough machine, conveyor, 
or meat cutter without special training?<ul><b><center>
No Job is worth risking injury or your life!</b><p></center>
In preparation for the kickoff of our Summer Job Programs and to put the focus on safety for all workers, 
YES is now offering Health and Safety workshops.  Our first workshop is March 4th.  
Workshops will run twice monthly starting in April. Call 624-1958 or visit the <a href="contactinfo.htm"> Resource Area </a>
