While workers are trained to work safely on the job, employees are far more likely to suffer an injury at home, on the road or during leisure activities.
Off-the-job accident statistics are staggering, so what employees do away from work is vitally important.

Promoting “Off-the-Job Safety” is a worthwhile endevour.
