The U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) will celebrate Safe + Sound Week from August 7 to August 13, 2023. This annual event aims to recognize workplace safety and health programs’ successes, emphasizing management leadership, worker participation, and systematic hazard identification and mitigation. Businesses with safety and health programs can prevent injuries and illnesses, reduce workers’ compensation costs, and enhance productivity. This year’s focus is on mental health and well-being, with resources to support mental health and address workplace stress. Organizations of any size or industry can participate to show their commitment to safety and health.
