The TRSA Safety Report allows participants to benchmark their occupational injury and illness data to measure progress in establishing and implementing enhanced management and safety practices to reduce and eliminate occupational injuries and illnesses by highlighting the industry’s highest risk areas, as well as these most cited by OSHA. These SafeTRSA efforts have led to the adoption of proven policies and procedures for maintaining equipment (lock-out, tag-out), handling soiled linen (especially blood-borne pathogens) and working in confined spaces.
About the Report
TRSA’s Safety Report indicates that TRSA members perform better in workplace safety than the linen and uniform supply (LUS) industry as a whole in two key metrics such as days away from work, job restriction or transfer (DART rate) and total recordable injuries and illnesses (TRIR).
TRSA members who participate in the survey receive at no cost a customized digital copy of the survey results for easy benchmarking. Non-participants can purchase the report.
