Safe + Sound Week: August 12-18, 2024

Safe + Sound Week is a nationwide event held each August that recognizes the successes of workplace health and safety programs and offers information and ideas on how to keep America's workers safe. The focus this year is on Job Hazard Analysis (JHA). Use #SafeAndSoundAtWork on social media and tag us to let us know how you’re participating!

How Can We Participate?

Employers

Successful safety and health programs can identify and manage workplace hazards before they cause injury or illness.​ Employers can create challenges, contests, and competitions to ​search for and uncover workplace hazards and implement effective controls. Use OSHA’s interactive Hazard Identification Training Tool to help you.

Here are a few other ideas:

You don’t have to create training from scratch. You can use OSHA’s training materials for both classroom and on-the-job training.

Local Unions

OSHA 10 training can help IATSE workers increase their job hazard awareness. If your local doesn’t have an OSHA Outreach Trainer, consider Developing a Local OSHA Trainer or search the Trainer Database to find a nearby trainer. You can then apply for a license to teach our OSHA curriculum focused on the entertainment industry.

Through the Borrow Our OSHA Trainer program, we can send our OSHA Outreach Trainer to your local to teach an OSHA 10-Hour General Industry with Focus on the Entertainment Industry class or an OSHA 10-Hour Construction with Focus on the Entertainment Industry class.

Local trainers approved to use the TTF Safety First! © Curriculum can access the Instructor Led Training (ILT) website to teach 20 different courses. In this version of the curriculum, instructors can select which portions they want taught themselves or which portions they want narrated.

IATSE Workers

The TTF Courses & Resources Learning Platform offers a wide range of safety resources including TTF Safety First! Online Courses, OSHA 10 and OSHA 30 Workbooks, Hazard ID Fact Sheets, and Safety Appendices. The TTF Safety First! Online Courses promote safe working conditions by providing information, tools, and resources to recognize potential hazards and minimize risks.

If you don’t have access to a live, in-classroom OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 class, we offer reimbursement for OSHA 10 and OSHA 30 General Industry and Construction online trainings.
