FGSD Safety, Health & Wellness Committee

  • Safety committees assist employers in making continuous improvement to safety and health programs
  • The purpose of safety committees is to bring workers and management together in a non-adversarial, cooperative effort to promote safety and health.
  • All employers with employees are required to establish a safety committee or hold safety meetings.
 
Best Practices of a Safety, Health & Wellness Committee

  • Look beyond conditions and influence the safety culture
  • Be visible
  • Represent your work group
  • Role model good behavior
  • Keep asking "why"
  • Become knowledgeable
