National Safety Month, established by the National Safety Council (NSC), aims to raise awareness about preventable injuries and fatalities in the workplace, at home, and on the road. It’s a reminder that safety should never be taken for granted and that continuous efforts are needed to prevent accidents and promote well-being.
