June is National Safety Month
Sponsor: National Safety Council
Injuries are the leading cause of death for Americans ages 1 to 40, but
there are many things people can do to stay safe and prevent injuries.
Make a difference – spread the word about ways to reduce the
risk of injuries. Encourage communities, workplaces, families, and individuals
to identify and report safety hazards.
How can National Safety Month make a
difference?
We can all use
this time to raise awareness about important safety issues like:
Preventing poisonings
Medication safety and prescription drug
abuse
Driving, biking, and working safely
First aid and emergency preparedness
Preventing slips, trips, and falls
Everyone can get involved in reducing the risk of injuries. Together, we
can share information about steps people can take to protect themselves and
others.
