Wintry weather has taken hold across much of the country, so OSHA is reminding employers and workers to stay mindful of safety during snow removal activities. Employers should provide proper training, personal protective equipment and fall protection equipment for workers who are removing snow.

Federal Agencies Tasked With Updating National Workplace Injury, Illness Data


A committee tasked with revamping a national workplace study released a 200-page report recently recommending major changes in workplace surveillance. The goal, according to the committee, is to reduce the health burden caused by injuries in the workplace.

How to Keep the Flu From Breaking Out in Your Workplace


Employers should prepare to see a number of absences in the coming weeks. The worst flu outbreak is likely to continue for more than three months. Luckily, these microbes can be outsmarted, or at least suppressed, with some pretty easy, inexpensive tactics. These actions can keep it from taking over your jobsite.

Standing, Desk Or Not, Is A Big Part Of Many Jobs


A study published Thursday in the latest issue of the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report finds that many U.S. workers are already active on the job. And while many deskbound workers dream of getting up once in a while, standing and physical work come with their own health risks.

Must We Deprive Ourselves of All Pleasure to Stay Healthy?


In the minds of many, preventative health has thus become synonymous with self-deprivation, restrictions and obligations. It could be argued that, in the long term, too many warning messages may be counterproductive, or even overwhelming - and therefore bad for our health. Might there be another way to maintain our health and well-being?

'Compassion Practices' Improve Nurses' Well-being


Recognizing nurses for their compassionate care can boost morale and reduce their emotional stress, a recent study from Virginia Commonwealth University suggests. The researchers say compassion practices can be a constant in the work environment, independent of a clinic's resources or makeup.
