Beginning this week and running all season long, customers will have access to important information and tips on weather-related safety. Beginning with snow and ice removal plans, the campaign will address everything from proper salting techniques to the importance of wearing the right footwear. Customers will find useful material in Accident Fund's WorkSafe Solutions e-blasts, as well on the policyholder website, to remind their employees of the importance of staying safe this winter.

"Every year, thousands of people are injured from slip and fall accidents. Not only are these accidents costly, but the human suffering is immeasurable. We're so pleased to offer our agents and policyholders a comprehensive approach to prevent these incidents with our Slip and Fall Elimination (S.A.F.E.) campaign."

Accident Fund encourages customers to access this information on a regular basis this winter so they can stay S.A.F.E. no matter what the forecast has in store.
