June is National Safety Month! Established by the National Safety Council, National Safety Month is an annual observance designed to educate communities on how to help keep each other safe and reduce risk in the workplace. As your workers’ compensation partner, we like to take this opportunity to spotlight the many ways we can help you or your employees go home safe.
