														 Is Your Workplace Ready for a Tornado?  
														
                                                       
														A tornado can occur with little or no warning. Taking precautions in advance of storms, such as developing an emergency plan, learning the warning signs, and monitoring tornado watches and warnings, can help you stay safe if a tornado occurs in your area.

													Sixty-seven percent of highway contractors report that motor vehicles crashed into their construction work zones during the past year, according to the results of a new highway work zone study conducted by the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC).

														 1 in 4 American Workers Struggles With Back Pain  
														
                                                       
														If your back aches while on the job, you have plenty of company: New research shows that nearly 40 million American workers suffer from chronic lower back pain. As striking as these findings are, the researchers believe that many more workers suffer from lower back pain than the study captured.

														 How Does Exercise Support Health Later in Life?  
														
                                                       
													New research shows that older adults who exercise regularly can perform everyday tasks more easily and gain independence. Despite the proven benefits of exercise, far too many people continue to do too little physical activity.
