The Environmental Industry Associations' Phil Hagan and Sharon H. Kneiss educate viewers about a national safety campaign developed by waste companies aimed at putting an end to tragic road accidents involving garbage collectors—a leading cause of workplace deaths and injuries for such employees. Called “Slow Down to Get Around,” the campaign urges drivers to be more careful around waste collection vehicles. Kneiss and Hagan are reminding viewers that it only takes one smart and cautious driver to set an example. Be a leader in your community—when you see a trash truck, slow down to get around. By doing so, you may be saving a life.
