Work related accidents can cause serious injuries while most of them are preventable.  In this section of our website, you will find safety training tool topics and e-learning resources to assist you in minimizing hazards and reduce the chance of an accident.

Preventing accidents can also benefit your company in other ways as well.  According to published studies, it is estimated that employers pay nearly $1 billion per week for direct workers' compensation costs for the most disabling workplace injuries and illnesses.  Those employers that implement effective safety and health management systems may expect to significantly reduce injuries and illnesses and reduce the costs associated with these injuries and illnesses, including workers’ compensation payments, medical expenses, and lost productivity. In addition, employers often find that process and other changes made to improve workplace safety and health can often result in significant improvements to their organization’s productivity and profitability.

The American Supply Association believes that investment in workplace safety and health not only protects worker’s health but makes good business sense as well by improving the company’s bottom-line.
