Your Insurance Solution

There are literally thousands of safety related websites on the World Wide Web. While there are some that contain valuable information for employers in our Upstate New York Region, the vast majority contain information that is either non-applicable or of questionable origin. For example, downloadable safety plans that may help an employer comply with regulations in California or Canada may or may not relate to similar regulations in New York State. In addition, there are many web sites that contain safety information that is outdated or simply inaccurate.

Provided below are links to web-sites that contain information, materials and downloads on a variety of safety related concerns. These sites were hand-picked and categorized by Paris Kirwan’s Director of Safety and Loss Control. They were established and are maintained by reputable sources, many of which are divisions of New York State or the U.S. Federal Government.
