Working on the Safety Part of Environmental Safety and Health

Because of our leadership in the environmental and restoration industries, many clients and associates forget that Wonder Makers offers a robust package of safety related services. For example, our organization recently completed the annual safety training for an operation that has control over more than 50 buildings throughout mid-Michigan. The Wonder Makers team developed customized training on core topics and presented a high energy day of training for nearly 80 maintenance and custodial employees. Utilizing the organization's own internal insurance statistics, presentations were made on  ladders and general fall protection, chemical management, radon, site surveys, and proper cleaning techniques to minimize the spread of disease during an outbreak of flu, MRSA, or norovirus. The importance of identifying chemical, as well as physical hazards around occupants and employees was stressed. In a unique twist, site-specific asbestos information was integrated throughout the eight hour program so that participants can also receive certificates of completion for their OSHA required two hour Asbestos Awareness class. Read more about this class here.
