“Prevention Starts Here” Poster vs Safety Memos
A Safety Memo Poster from RealSafety.Org
You may have heard the term “safety memo” in the workplace, but aren’t quite sure what it means. A safety memo can come in many media forms, including videos, posters, formal letters, social media, and more. Safety memos are a great way to spread workplace health and safety culture in whatever workplace you find yourself in!
However, unlike the “Prevention Starts Here” poster, safety memos are not required. The OHSA has rules and regulations regarding what information must be posted in the workplace, such as the “Prevention Starts Here” poster and the OHSA Green Book. There are also other required documents that must be posted in every workplace. Click here to see the list on the Ontario Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development’s website.
So, is the “Prevention Starts Here” poster a safety memo? In a way, yes – but it is also a legally required document that must be posted in all workplaces. If you feel like your workplace requires additional safety memos, there are many free templates and pre-made documents, posters, and videos online! Additional safety memos can be a great choice for workplace specific issues and reminders.
