Then\, enjoy TWO speaker presentations and Q&A sessions over a buffet dinner starting a 6:00 pm. \nPresentation 1: Safety First – Certified!\nSpeakers: Mike Barwell\, NHLA Education Chair; Kathy Taylor\, NHTI Director of Workforce Development & Community Education \nNHLA and NHTI (Concord’s community college) are rolling out a unique Certificate Program in Worksite Safety for new crew members and team leaders this spring. \nThis six-week program\, starting in late March\, will cover basic workplace protocols. Using resources from local Green Industry leaders\, ergonomic practitioners\, UNH Cooperative Extension experts and Department of Safety Troop G officers\, we will offer a compact in-class and hands-on curriculum that surpasses most in-house or paid subscription services. \nAnd we’ll make it affordable\, too! \nYour crews will learn how to ensure a safe work culture including:\n— how to identify hazards and manage risks\n— set up a safe worksite and control traffic\n— handle materials safely and ergonomically\n— inspect\, start and stop hand-held and riding/walking equipment\n— learn how inspect and hook up trucks and trailers and observe mandated driving protocols\n— learn efficient production techniques \nWhy would owners/managers want to send their workers? If you’ve struggled to train new employees – or simply make it up as you go – this certificate can provide an incentive for recruiting your new employees and empowering your crew leaders. It’s also a great return on investment (ROI). \nThis gives your crew leaders expert authority for on-site training and operations and can help lower your Workers’ Compensation costs by reducing employee and equipment accidents. \nWe will explain more at the January 22 NHLA Dinner Meeting. If you want to cover your assets\, you don’t want to miss this first-time opportunity to get your workers rolling safely this spring. \nPresentation 2: Cross Insurance \nCross Insurance was established in 1954 in Bangor Maine\, remains family owned and operated in our 3rdgeneration\, and is the largest locally owned independent agency in New England.
