Sledding Safety
From Plan-It Safe Child and Youth Injury Prevention Centre
Thanks to supervisor Christopher Martin of Richmond Honda who emailed: "Could
you please also issue a safety message for parents to ensure their kids wear
helmets while sledding/tobogganing?"
We located this information on sledding safety from the Children's Hospital
of Eastern Ontario.
Do you have any suggestions for safety issues to feature in our WorkSafe Update?
Please let
us know. |
