NATIONAL – The annual North American Occupational Safety and Health Week (NAOSH) runs from May 3 to 9 this year, and the theme for 2015 is “Make Safety a Habit”. NAOSH, which has run as a continent-wide event every year since 1997, aims to promote the importance of preventing injuries and illnesses at work, at home and in the greater community, according to the official NAOSH website. Organizations across the country are hosting their own safety-themed events as part of the week. The Canadian Society of Safety Engineering (CSSE) is offering the Canadian NAOSH Week Awards to “Motivational Champions” for themed events and activities, based in four categories: 1) most innovative; 2) best new entry; 3) best representation of the “Make Safety a Habit” theme, and 4) best overall event. The CSSE originally created NAOSH in 1986 as Canadian Occupational Health and Safety Week.
