Effective risk management is critical to supporting the safety and well-being of students, staff, volunteers, and visitors at schools. It reduces the potential number of manpower hours lost due to workplace accidents and protects the school from a liability standpoint by reducing the likelihood of lawsuits.
A strong, proactive approach to managing risk helps to create a culture of care in which staff feel valued, and it helps support the larger mission of the district to create a safe environment for educating students.
To support K-12 school districts in managing risk, Vector Solutions partnered with Health, Safety, and Environmental Coordinator Alexandra Neff for a webinar about how to assess risk and implement strategies that help create a safe work environment in K-12 schools.
