Not everything is about Corona Virus…
OSHA actually come out with an interesting publication – safety through Leading Indicators and not lagging indicators. In other words, being proactive, and not just doing this AFTER the person falls off the ladder.
You know what to do:
In light of the events in Orlando, Paris, Brussels, and other areas, here are materials from the US Division of Homeland Security on Active Shooters.
Active Shooter Pocket Card – English
Active Shooter – Poster – English
Active Shooter Pocket Card – Spanish
Nice to find all of these in an editable format. These range from machine guarding, lockout, emergency action plan, and others.

I was surprised to find this as well – an entire book online for free. This is a guide developed by the British on all things safety. Not a full handout for complex issues, but great for companies establishing a safety program, educating a person on safety and risk, and ways to combat the most common issues in the workplace. Excellent design.

A wide range of subjects – including construction, excavation, healthcare, machine shops, plastics, metal stamping, etc. Programs are detailed and include all aspects to create a good program. I may break these down later to individual subjects, but posting now for reference.
