February 2026 Health and Safety Bulletin
February 2026!
We’ve likely all been there—got a crick in the neck, had dry, tired eyes after being in front of a screen for hours on end, an achy back after sitting for hours, or slipped and felt a twinge somewhere.
This month’s issue looks at how early reporting of minor injuries can keep workers healthy while helping to prevent more serious injuries and potentially costly (and avoidable) WCB claims.
