OSHA’s Safe + Sound Week 2025 Urges Employers to Prioritize Prevention

Nationwide event returns August 12–18 with free tools, recognition, and resources to help businesses improve workplace safety and health.

OSHA is hosting its annual Safe + Sound Week from August 12–18, 2025, highlighting the importance of proactive workplace safety and health programs.

Safe + Sound Week is a nationwide event that recognizes the successes of businesses that implement effective safety and health programs. The campaign also encourages other organizations to start or improve their own programs to better identify and manage workplace hazards before they cause injury or illness.

Thousands of businesses of all sizes and industries participate in Safe + Sound Week each year. OSHA, along with its partners—including NIOSH, the National Safety Council, and the American Industrial Hygiene Association—offers free resources to help employers plan, promote, and carry out activities that engage workers in safety-focused initiatives.

Companies can sign up on OSHA’s Safe + Sound Week site to receive a certificate of recognition and a digital badge to showcase their commitment to workplace safety. The initiative emphasizes three core elements of effective safety programs: management leadership, worker participation, and a systematic approach to finding and fixing hazards.
