Safety pledge

To ensure safety as a core value, postal management should pledge to:

• • Demonstrate a commitment to providing a safe work environment for my employees.
  • Participate in day to day safety activities. Take the necessary action to prevent accidents.
  • Provide safety training and educate my employees.
  • Investigate all accidents to determine root cause.
  • Encourage the reporting of hazards and act to address them.
  • Actively participate in joint safety and health committees.
  • Fully participate in the Counsel At Risk Employees (CARE) program.
  • Encourage participation in safety activities at all levels.
  • Never walk by an unsafe practice or hazard and say or do nothing.

When postal management promotes a culture of safety, employees get a greater understanding of the importance of working safely and reducing accidents and injuries.

And that’s smart safety!
