Safety professionals have often felt isolated, only getting the chance to network with colleagues once or twice each year at trade shows and conferences. Many safety professionals are the sole individuals at their companies doing the important job of ensuring workplace safety. It can be a lonely road.
But not anymore! The Online Safety Community, located at www.safetycommunity.com, is a free social network created for safety managers, foremen, safety engineers, factory and construction workers and anyone for whom workplace safety is a profession or a passion. The site, sponsored by Ansell Limited, is an opportunity for professionals to share ideas, read and comment on industry news stories, and work together to pioneer new ways of making workplaces safer and more productive.
Before the Online Safety Community, interaction and networking with your fellow safety professionals may have taken place only a few times per year during tradeshows. By joining the Online Safety Community, you’ll have 24 hour access to the most up-to-date information and the brightest minds in the industry.
Once you sign up, don’t forget to participate. You can:
* Personalize your page with a customized theme
* Post photos and videos to your page or to the main blog
* Start your own blog
* Comment on other pages, blog posts and articles
* Invite your colleagues and friends
* Add friends to build your network
The more you participate and contribute to the Online Safety Community, the more you’ll get out of it. As we all begin to share and interact online, knowledge is spread and workplaces will become even safer!
We look forward to seeing you in the Online Safety Community, where we are all about promoting a safer and more productive workplace.
Hope to see you on the community site soon!
