Steps for Life

Safety Services Manitoba is proud to support Winnipeg’s second annual Steps for Life walk for victims of workplace tragedy.

 

Please join us at Kildonan Park on Sunday, May 2, 2010 for the second annual Steps for Life – Walking for Victims of Workplace Tragedy.

 

Steps for Life is a 5 km fundraising walk to help support families who have suffered from a workplace fatality, life-altering injury or occupational disease. It’s the primary fundraising event for Threads of Life, a national registered charity dedicated to supporting families of workplace tragedy.

 

Steps for Life raises awareness about the importance of health and safety within workplaces and to the public. It’s a unique way to educate your community about the devastating ripple effects of a workplace tragedy and how we can work together to prevent others from being injured or killed on the job.

Families, friends and co-workers and employers will walk to raise awareness about the importance of injury prevention in the workplace and to raise funds for family support programs and services to help victims of workplace tragedy. Last year across Canada, the walk raised more than $158,000 in cash for family support programs and services.

In Manitoba the walk raised over $7,000, attracting participants from all over Manitoba and Northern Ontario, as friends and families of victims of workplace tragedy joined together.

Safety Services Manitoba, Manitoba Heavy Construction, Workers Compensation Board, Apotex Fermentation and many other companies partner to make this event a reality.

Register to walk as an individual or a team.
