Inclement Weather & Cold Safety

Severe winter weather can not only disrupt or shut down business operations but can threaten worker safety and attendance. An inclement weather policy should be part of a comprehensive emergency preparedness program that gives employees guidelines on what to expect during severe weather events. Join Mark Harmon and David Yanoschick as we discuss ways to prepare yourself, your business, and your employees for the next weather emergency.

Speakers:

Mark Harmon, Compliance Assistance Specialist (CAS), Federal OSHA Erie Area Office
