This fall Governor Walz and his Cabinet demonstrated their commitment to workplace safety by continuing MnSAFE and signing the MnSAFE commitment statement. Since MnSAFE’s inception in 2012, there have been 3,100 fewer employee injuries.

Governor Walz shares safety commitment video

Governor Walz shares his commitment to an injury-free workplace and the expectation that everyone is accountable for their safety and the safety of others in his recently released MnSAFE video. He tasks all of us to:

  • Avoid short cuts for the purpose of productivity,
  • Utilize safety training that has been provided,
  • And if you see something unsafe, say something!

Strengthen your safety culture by using these new resources

Please take a few minutes to review and share the MnSAFE commitment statement and Governor Walz’s video within your organization.

Consider incorporating Governor Walz’s video and the signed commitment statement into your new employee orientation, existing employee safety trainings, and share the information with your safety committees.

Work with your leadership to create a similar video message for your organization.
