National Safety Month Promotion

Shrewsbury, PA – June 19, 2008

As emergency responders we are constantly reminded about the importance of our own personal safety yet many of us suffer injuries on the job or at home. These injuries can delay or prevent our response to the emergencies of others or force us out of the workplace. The National Safety Council has recognized June as National Safety Month®. To show our appreciation and concern for the safety of the emergency responders we serve CentreLearn and Emergency Preparedness Systems LLC are offering 50% off the RapidCE.com™ lesson an “Introduction to OSHA and General Safety Training.”

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s goal is to reduce workplace injuries and deaths through safety and health standards. Much of what we do as emergency responders is impacted by OSHA standards or standards from comparable state workplace safety agencies. In this introductory lesson emergency responders will learn OSHA history, the importance of following safety standards, and about the many safety and health lessons available from CentreLearn.

CentreLearn has partnered with Emergency Preparedness Systems to produce a great library of online safety courses. Jim Eastham, CEO of CentreLearn, states, “These courses are perfect for fulfilling OSHA related training requirements.”

The regular price for a single RapidCE.com™ lesson is $6.95. Between now and June 30 users that complete this lesson will receive 1.0 hour of CECBEMS approved credit for just $3.48. According to Jim Eastham, “We've discounted our Introduction to OSHA and General Safety Course 50% to encourage you to find out just how good online safety training can be.”

Emergency Preparedness Systems LLC has produced twenty health and safety lessons for CentreLearn and RapidCE.com™ users. Greg Friese, MS, NREMT-P, president of EPS stated, “Safety is very important to our team. We want our clients to recognize and minimize the risks inherent with our jobs.” Other RapidCE.com™ safety lessons from EPS include:

·        Bloodborne pathogens

·        Respiratory protection

·        Hazard Communication

·        Slips, trips, and falls prevention
