I am the safety coordinator at our organization. Every early winter we send out winter safety reminders. Just some things to consider. You can search online for indepth details on each but just a couple we feel are extremely important.
CO Carbon Monoxide Lots of ice fisherpersons on this site. Have CO detectors in fish houses and have a check in/check out system with family or friends so they know your status
Also, have furnaces inspected. Google Moorhead Mn carbon monoxide poisoning-family of 7 all lost lives due to a faulty furnace almost unimaginable…..
Snow blocked/frozen sewer vent pipes and furnace exhausts on house.
CO detectors in homes, especially near sleeping quarters
Poor ice conditions, especially in early season and folks in a hurry to get out there.
As sure as I’m typing this, many will die this winter season and all caused by topics above are totally preventable.
Have a great Thanksgiving/Christmas season everyone.
