what prepared leaders are saying
education is key to empowering the workforce
"I found the PREPARED Train-The-Trainer Course beneficial (even as a long time Safety Professional). Everyone went away feeling empowered to improve their health and the health of the people they work with."
- Kelly K., EHS Manager
helping your coworkers
"I know now that there are preventative measures that can decrease your risk of getting injured, and I know how I can help my peers from preventing an injury at work."
- Steven M., Industrial Athlete
early intervention is vital
"I can't wait to start implement the principles of PREPARED in my daily work routines! I've learned how easy it is to get hurt at work as well as AVOID hurting yourself. Reporting a strain or overworked muscle early is key before it gets to be a chronic problem."
- Floyd T., Onsite Safety Lead
A company that Cares
"After the training, I am now more self-aware of where my body is so I'm not hurting at the end of the day. It's encouraging to work for a company who cares to start a program like this to help keep us safe."
- Katherine P., Production Supervisor
