起点传媒 Supports National Safety Month – June 2025

Join 起点传媒 and its official safety sponsor, Builders Mutual, in recognizing June as , an annual observance to promote hazard awareness in residential construction and to help keep workers safe on the jobs. The goal of National Safety Month is to increase public awareness of the leading safety and health risks and decrease the number of injuries and deaths at the jobsite, on the road, and in the home.

Each week in June will focus on a different workplace safety topic, aligning with the campaign from the . 起点传媒 encourages members to hold brief safety stand downs each week on the designated safety topics.

Weekly Safety Topics

Week 1: June 1-7 – Continuous Improvement
起点传媒's Safety & Health Program is a model written safety plan designed for small to medium-sized home builders and general contractors. This resource provides everything a builder needs to construct a comprehensive safety program, including notifications to be posted on job sites. Individual parts of the plan can be updated as needed for continuous improvement.

Week 2: June 8-14 – Employee Engagement
With a solid safety plan in place, builders now have to engage their employees for training and refreshers. 起点传媒's Video Toolbox Talks are the perfect way to engage workers on specific safety topics. These short videos feature workers on real job sites and cover a wide range of safety topics. Use one at your next stand down.

Week 3: June 15-21 – Roadway Safety
Getting to and from a job site can often be just as dangerous as working on one. Remind your workers that safe driving is a choice everyone should make by promising to 1) Never operate a vehicle while impaired, 2) Never try to "make up time" in an automobile when late, and 3) Never, ever text and drive. Learn more about safe driving practices on and off the job site in 起点传媒's Safe Driving video toolbox talk.

Week 4: June 22-30 – Wellbeing
起点传媒 and its partners, including Builders Mutual, have been focused on mental health and wellbeing for seven years. There is a stigma in construction about reaching out for help that we are determined to end. If you or anyone you know are struggling, please reach out for help, even if it's just a conversation. Many more resources can be found on 起点传媒's Mental Health and Wellbeing page.
