A productive workforce is a healthy workforce . . . or is it? Accidents are always waiting to happen. We must be constantly aware of dangerous situations to protect ourselves and others.
On the road, in the shop, stuck in an office, sitting down for lunch . . . there are always dangers.
A safety concious workforce can be a healthy workforce. And the better our health, the better we feel and the better we can enjoy our work, our life and our co-workers.

Deadly Driving Distractions: Texting, Cell Phones, and Other Killers
According to insurance statistics, distracted drivers are responsible for almost 80 percent of all car crashes and 65 percent of near-collisions in the United States. This video helps students steer clear of the dangers resulting from driving while texting, talking on cell phones, eating, smoking, and other distractions. Forgoing the traditional host-and-interview format, the program uses conversations with teens and college students who share their thoughts on the subject while driving instructors and other educators explore safe driving methods. In addition, people with firsthand knowledge—such as emergency room personnel and car crash survivors—offer their cautionary advice. Viewable/printable discussion questions are available online.

Workplace Safety: Your Rights and Obligations
