Reducing accidents and saving lives in the workplace is the mission of the Colorado Safety Association (www.coloradosafety.org). This not-for-profit, non-governmental organization is dedicated to educating and training safety professionals and others on how to make their environments safer for employees, contractors and the public. CSA promotes safety in the business, industrial and public sectors through year-round occupational safety training programs, an annual safety and health conference, and the distribution of safety training materials. Members have access to a large volume of resources and support from CSA to help keep their employees, contractors and the public safe. Since it was founded in 1968, CSA has specialized in occupational safety and health issues. It is a training agency of the National Safety Council and a member of the Association of Reciprocal Safety Councils. Over 600 Colorado companies have joined CSA - from small companies to large corporations representing a full range of businesses and industries, such as: construction, manufacturing industries, utilities, transportation, schools, city and county governments, universities, research companies, and human service and health care providers.
