National Safety Month June 2020

featured in Facilities

Now, more than ever, safety is crucial both inside and outside the workplace, which is why the National Safety Council will still be recognizing National Safety Month® in June. Observed annually by NSC, the nation's leading nonprofit safety advocate, National Safety Month focuses on saving lives and preventing injuries, from the workplace to anyplace.

Given the current state of the world, the month will look a little different than past years. Instead of focusing on a single topic each week, we will provide real-time, relevant resources on a variety of topics for keeping workers safe in our new normal.

How is Meridian Waste participating in National Safety Month this June? Company Safety Manager Mike Vess is reviewing all of our facilities' Emergency Action Plans (EAPs) and ensuring our measures for protecting employees in the workplace are comprehensive and efficient. Each facility is involved in reviewing their plans, and ensuring the information is correct and relevant to their facility.
