[princi_elem] [principals] End of the School Year: Safety/Injury Prevention Message

Good afternoon all,

The end of this school year is just around the corner. We're all very busy with only two weeks left before the summer recessperiod. As June 23 approaches, we urge staff to keep safety at the forefront of everyday actions/activities. We want everyone to finish this school year without a new injury. To make this reminder accessible in your building, pleaseprint and post the attached fliers/posters.

As you know, most on the job injuries are preventable; so we're seeking your help in sending staff into summer without a newinjury.

To help prevent injury or decrease the severity of injury, we encourage staff to: 1. Use the district safety ladders. Do not use chairs, furniture, boxes, etc to stand on.

2. Use moving tools/equipment such as carts, dollies, furniture movers, or furniture slides to carry or move heavy items.

3. Complete a pre-work warm-up/stretching routine before beginning a task or participating in an activity that involvessignificant physical exertion or has a high exposure to injury. Warming up may include performing/participating in lowimpact tasks/activities which will make stretching more effective.

4. If there are no moving tools equipment available to use, ask for help instead of attempting to carry/move heavy item(s) onown.

5. Offer help when someone is attempting to perform a task that maybe safer and more efficient if two people are workingtogether.

6. If there is no one available to help, take two or more trips to carry/move heavy item(s).

7. Consider using the green zone versus yellow/red zones when pushing, pulling, lifting, lowering, carrying heavy item(s).

8. To will help decrease the chance of a collision between two individuals, approach door entrance/exitways/hallway cornerswith caution to help improve awareness of surroundings.

9. If possible, when talking on the phone, sending a text, or reading a text stop and sit down. This will help decrease the

chance of an unintended slip, trip, or fall.

10. To help improve awareness of surroundings, turn off the radio/music when approaching final work destination. Accidentsoften occur within close proximity of the driver’s final destination.

11. Do not attempt to catch something as it is falling. Instead, let it fall.

12. Consider checking for slip, trip, fall hazards before performing a task.

Here is to a safe rest of our school year and Summer!

Thank you much, Scott
