Although generally not required, a workplace safety committee is a valuable tool that helps employers boost their illness and injury prevention efforts and keep safe work habits at the forefront of everyone's thinking. In this way, a safety committee can not only lower the risk of injuries to your workers, but also your risk of costly fines, jury verdicts, and workers' comp awards.

If you want your safety committee to make a real difference in your workplace, you must be prepared to invest a good deal of energy and time designing and developing it—if you don't, your efforts will be wasted.

But where to start? Listen to a comprehensive webinar that explains what you need to know to set up an effective safety committee—or breathe new life into the one you have.

You'll Learn:

• Why every workplace can benefit from an effective safety committee
• How to decide who should be on your safety committee
• How to make your safety committee fit and shape your safety culture
• Real-life examples of how safety committees benefit a company's overall safety program
• Where to start if you're developing a safety committee for the first time
• Why a good safety committee can improve your bottom line
