Is it that time already? With comes changes in schedules, busy minds, and maybe a touch of fatigue. Just remember when driving, watch for littles starting their new routine. Drive with care everyone!

Roadside work is dangerous. Between 2015 and 2024, 9 roadside workers were killed on the job. As an employer, here’s what you need to know to help keep them safe: https://roadsafetyatwork.ca/resource/tool-kit/work-zone-planning/

Staying off the road helps protect you and gives the responders the space they need to work safely. But if you must drive in wildfire affected areas, remember to stay alert for emergency crews, equipment and evacuees who may be moving unpredictably.

This , let’s not rush. Rushing could lead to unsafe driving behaviours and there’s nothing more important than the safety of the littles starting their new routine. Pay attention at crosswalks, drive slowly, and be patient with other drivers on the road. Stay safe everyone!

Do you have an impairment policy at your workplace? Impaired driving is preventable. Implementing clear policies in your workplace can save lives.
