The League accompanied MySafeWork to two school events in June.
On June 11, the League partnered with Jessica Di Sabatino, MySafeWork, for a panel discussion at Father John Redmond Catholic Secondary School in Etobicoke. The standing-room-only event catered to over 200 students. Question topics ranged from harassment and the risk of potential job loss to the role of unions and the frequency of false WSIB claims.
At Mohawk College, eight Champions attended the Next Steps presentation on June 12. Next Steps is an annual event held by the Hamilton school boards in support of the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP). This is a school-to-work program for grade 11 and 12 students. Jessica Di Sabatino, MySafeWork presented to 75 signed apprentices, parents and staff.
The League of Champions thanks all those who came out to support the students and to participate in the question and answer periods.
Throughout the calendar year, the League calls on its members and patrons to participate in a variety of presentations and events. This is a wonderful way to network with fellow champions and serves to demonstrate your organization’s commitment to safety culture.
