Our Mission MySafeWork’s mission is to prevent workers from getting killed and injured on the job. We are committed to creating a social movement against unsafe work through education and empowerment. At the same time, we inspire companies to establish strong safety culture through employee engagement. Our Story At the age of 18, David Ellis was killed in a workplace accident.
