Winter Weather Preparedness: Keeping School Operations Safe and Moving
Winter weather events are becoming less predictable, even in regions that don’t traditionally experience prolonged cold, ice, or snow. Sudden freezes, icy roadways, power disruptions, and rapidly changing forecasts can create significant challenges for school districts — often with little time to respond.
Supporting Employee Mental Health During Challenging or Traumatic Times
During challenging times or traumatic events, organizations can do a lot to support employees. NAMI encourages people to bring their whole selves to work, which includes their mental health. As employers, it’s important to acknowledge what’s happening outside of the workplace, its potential impact on employee wellness, and support employees so that they can continue to do their best work.
Eliminate Radon Dangers
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas produced by the breakdown of uranium in soil, rocks and water. Since the air pressure in a typical home is lower than the pressure in the soil around the foundation, the home acts like a vacuum and draws radon in through cracks in the foundation.
Snowmelt Prevention Tips
As winter ends and temperatures begin to rise, the accumulating water from melting snow and ice—also known as snowmelt—can lead to significant property damage. Don’t let snowmelt wreak havoc on your home. Review the following guidance for snowmelt prevention recommendations.
The Risks of Radon Exposure
Radon is a colorless, odorless and tasteless radioactive gas that is formed from the natural radioactive decay of uranium found in many rocks, soils and water. It is a known human carcinogen; in fact, as the second leading cause of lung cancer behind smoking, it presents a serious health risk to those exposed.
Personalization Now a Baseline Expectation in Employee Benefits
