March is Workplace Eye Wellness Awareness Month—a time dedicated to promoting the importance of protecting one of our most valuable senses: sight. At PSSI, keeping our eyes safe while performing industrial sanitation services or handling chemicals is not just a monthly initiative; it’s a fundamental aspect of our commitment to workplace safety. As we recognize Workplace Eye Wellness Awareness Month, we reflect on our ongoing efforts to provide our team members with the necessary tools, PPE, training, and support to keep their eyes safe from potential hazards.

Appropriate PPE: The Foundation of Safety Culture

Ensuring the safety of our team members starts with equipping them with the right personal protective equipment (PPE). While working on-site in our customers’ facilities, we prioritize providing goggles and safety glasses that not only meet industry standards but also offer protection and comfort. We believe that when it comes to PPE, one size does not fit all. That’s why we invest time and resources in finding the best eye protection solutions tailored to the unique needs of our workforce.

Proper Usage and Maintenance: Keys to Eye Safety

Equipping our team members with high-quality PPE is just the first step. Proper usage and maintenance are equally important in preventing eye injuries. Whether it’s ensuring goggles are securely fastened during industrial sanitation services or keeping safety glasses on to shield against flying debris or overspray, we emphasize the importance of adhering to safety protocols at all times. Through comprehensive training and team safety meetings, we empower our team members to make eye safety a top priority.

A Culture of Prevention: Extending Beyond Awareness Month While Workplace Eye Wellness Awareness Month serves as a timely reminder of the importance of eye safety, our commitment to prevention extends far beyond just a single month. We recognize that most eye injuries are preventable with the right precautions and education. That’s why we foster a culture of safety that emphasizes proactive measures, continuous training, and open communication. By integrating eye safety practices into our nightly routines, we build a culture where every team member feels empowered to protect their vision and look out for one another.
