The National Safety Council reveals its Respond Ready Workplace program aimed at reducing workplace drug overdose fatalities. This initiative follows a staggering 536 percent rise in unintentional overdose deaths at workplaces from 2011 to 2021. The program seeks to integrate naloxone into workplace first aid kits, promote employee training, and collaborate with industries to bolster awareness and prevention measures.
The National Safety Council awarded three leading organizations - Schneider, Walgreens, and APTIM - for their outstanding contributions in workplace safety at the 24th annual Green Cross for Safety® awards held at Mardi Gras World.
