Employee News Articles:
April is recognized as Workplace Violence Awareness Month by the Alliance Against Workplace Violence (AAWPV) and other safety organizations across the country.
Many workplaces are staffed by workers with different employers—a host company, contractors, and staffing agencies. If you own or operate a facility, you have complete responsibility for the health and safety of your own employees and a shared responsibility for those working for a contractor or staffing agency.
Terminal trucks are common in industrial facilities. Also called yard trucks, yard dogs, jockeys, or mules, these specialized trucks are used to move trailers around a yard or facility. Although they haul semitruck trailers, the trucks aren’t designed for over-the-road use.
More women are working in safety, but the issue of gender bias remains a major concern.
Take this quiz to test your knowledge of gender bias in the safety industry.
Notices:
PHMSA has given notice that the Office of Hazardous Materials Safety (OHMS) will host four public meetings during 2025 in advance of certain international meetings.
