Green
industry professionals sharing information
and helping each other build
their safety knowledge.
|

In
the green industry, as in many places, safety
awareness saves both money and lives. The purpose
of the "SafetySAVES" listserve is to provide
a venue for companies and individuals with
a strong interest in green industry safety
to share with and learn from each other.
Wondering
how others deal with a crew member who continually
forgets to wear his safety glasses, what
safety incentive programs work, what new
training ideas have been found, and how to
start a safety committee? In this forum,
best practices can be shared and questions
asked on varied topics.

A
listserve is similar to an e-mail distribution
list. The main difference is that a listserve
is updated automatically for all involved. When
a message is sent to the listserve address, everyone
in the group receives it.
