AUSTIN, TX (CompNewsNetwork) - The Texas Department of Insurance, Division of Workers' Compensation (TDI-DWC) will present a regional workplace safety workshop in El Paso on Wednesday, March 12, 2008 at the Camino Real Hotel located at 101 South El Paso Street. The High Desert Safety Summit is one of several Regional Safety Summits offered by TDI-DWC in multiple regions around the state. The cost is $125 per person and includes coffee and snacks.
TDI-DWC is hosting this workshop because of the high incidence of nonfatal workplace injuries involving sprains and strains and workplace fatalities resulting from transportation-related incidents. The workshop will offer breakout sessions to help employers and employees prevent these common causes of injury and death. Participants may choose the sessions they wish to attend; each session will be repeated once during the day.
Another workshop session will address issues in the construction industry specifically. TDI-DWC instructors will present a 10-hour General Construction course. Each participant completing this entire track will receive an Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) completion card.
Texas State Technical College, Waco will provide continuing education credits (.1 CEU per 1 class hour).
