Fairfield Safety Council

The Fairfield Safety Council is proud to be part of the statewide Safety Council program, sponsored by the Ohio BWC’s Division of Safety & Hygiene. Each Ohio Safety Council shares a common goal: to increase workplace safety awareness and provide meaningful training to help employers build and maintain a safe work environment. Creating a culture of safety is a challenge—and one best met through collaboration between local businesses and the broader community.

We are a brand-new Safety Council for Fiscal Year 2026, and we’re excited to help companies embrace and strengthen their safety culture. We aim to deliver timely, relevant programming to meet the real-world needs of today’s workplaces.
