April 2019 General Meeting

Topic: Overexertion: Using Alternative Therapy to Overcome Repetitive Use Injuries

As Safety professionals, we cannot get to new places by traveling old roads. Injury prevention and “striving for zero injuries” begins with the mindset that we have to think AND act outside the box. This presentation explores opportunities in injury prevention through alternative treatments. It will also explore the important aspect of self-care; teaching employees how to take care of themselves before aches and pains get out of hand.
