On April 22, 2002, Local 1588 Launched it's Occupational Health and Safety awareness Program. Grade 6 students from 3 Cape Breton schools have been asked to give Safety Tips. Three students from each class will be chosen to have the top tips in their class, and will receive a Safety Tips T-shirt The Class that has the top Safety Tip will receive a Pizza Party from the Carpenters Union Local 1588. May 5 - 11th is North American Occupational Health and Safety Week The Safety Tips gathered in the 3 schools will be used in our Radio Campaign. The 3 schools participating are: Cusack Elementary - Sydney Greenfield Elementary - River Ryan Seton Elementary - North Sydney Throughout the day during OHS Week the 3 local radio stations (CJCB, K94 fm and Oldies 950) will randomly play a 60 second spot highlighting a "Safety Tip of the Day". A logo was designed for this event and will be used on the T-shirts and also stickers to be given to all students who participate in the Safety Tip Campaign along with all members of Local 1588.  Local 1588 is committed to Safety and Safety Awareness; not only Construction Safety; infact Lawrence Shebib is the Chair of the Nova Scotia Construction Safety Association |
