Safety Tidbits

Safety Tidbits- Click here for this week’s Safety Tidbits containing information about eye protection. Sunglasses are another important eye saver. There is increasing evidence that ultraviolet rays in sunlight can significantly increase your risk of developing cataracts & macular degeneration. Many eye specialists recommend wearing sunglasses on sunny days year-round. Plus, you‛ll experience better night vision when you wear sunglasses on sunny days. There are a few key things to look for when picking the right pair of shades. Make sure they carry a consumer-protectionstating they‛re 99-100% UV-absorbent, or provide UV absorption up to 400 nanometers (nm). Find a tint that works for you & remember – bigger is better when it comes to sunglasses.

Bumble Bee

According to scientists, the bumblebee’s body is too heavy and its wing span too small. Aerodynamically, the bumblebee cannot fly. But the bumblebee doesn’t know that and it keeps flying. When you don’t know your limitations, you go out and surprise yourself. In hindsight, you wonder if you had any limitations. The only limitations a person has are those that are self-imposed. So, don’t let your mind put limitations on you.

Be all you can be… you don’t have to take the path of least resistance, just because you’re ~70% water! Go on out and stretch yourself – Bee all you were meant to be, and you just may be that inspiration somebody else needs! Oh, and just try telling the bumblebee it can’t fly!

Zero Injuries – No one gets hurt!

Make it a Great Weekend!
