Today, Virginia State Police Colonel Matthew Hanley shared powerful remarks during the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims at the VSP Training Academy in Richmond. The event brought together dozens of attendees, including families and loved ones forever changed by roadway tragedies.

WDR is observed worldwide to honor the millions who have been killed or seriously injured on our roads, and to acknowledge the ongoing pain carried by their families, friends and communities. The toll is immense, and it grows every year.
Which is why it is also a day to call for stronger, more urgent action. Road deaths are not inevitable; our choices matter in bringing that number closer to 0.

Take Action:
Make a plan to drive attentively, slow down, eliminate distractions, never drive impaired, and hold those around us to the same standard. One choice can save a life.

This week, last week, and for the foreseeable future, our team is proudly wearing our apparel in continued support of our Education and Training Manager, Kim Beard. If you know Kim, you know her positivity & strength can brighten any room. She wants that us all to remember that taking care of our health is one of the most powerful ways we can take care of ourselves and each other.

Regular screenings save lives. Early detection through mammograms and colonoscopies can make all the difference. If you’re due for a screening, please make that appointment. Even if you’re not, regular doctor visits are an essential part of a healthy routine, & the way it works around here is if Kim said it... you should probably do it!

We’re standing strong for Kim, and for everyone else fighting & healing, and thriving. 💪💗

It’s Drowsy Driving Prevention Week (November 2 – 8), a reminder that drowsy driving is impaired driving.

Driving without enough rest can be just as dangerous as driving drunk... After 20 hours without sleep, your reaction time and focus drop to the level of someone with a 0.08% blood-alcohol content. In fact, the National Sleep Foundation estimates that 6,400 people die annually in crashes involving a drowsy driver.

You can make a difference behind the wheel:
✅ Get 7 or more hours of sleep each night
✅ Avoid medications that cause drowsiness before driving
✅ Share the message with friends, coworkers, and teens
✅ Employers: promote rest and fatigue awareness as part of your safety culture

The next time you feel too tired to drive, don’t push through it. Pull over. Rest. Live.

Last week, our Spanish-language Scaffold course took hands-on learning to new heights! 🏗️ Led by our very own Eduardo Gonzalez, students learned to identify and prevent scaffold-related hazards while putting their knowledge into action.

From fall protection to load capacity, this course prepares participants to meet OSHA’s standards for supported scaffolds and empowers employers to designate a truly competent person on the jobsite.

While there are currently no open enrollment dates, this course is available as a private onsite training, which is perfect for teams who may want to learn in Spanish and practice directly on their own equipment.

For details, call us at 800-875-4770 or visit us at: https://www.chesapeakesc.org/private-training/

👻 The Haunted Workplace: Exorcising Miscommunication and Conflict
🗓️ October 31, 2025 | 12:00pm – 1:00pm EST

Not every haunting comes with rattling chains. Some creep quietly through unclear emails, tense meetings, and words left unsaid. Miscommunication can chill rooms to the bone, and conflict can make even the brightest workplace feel dark.

This Halloween, join Michelle Collins, licensed therapist and workplace communication expert, for a session on how to exorcise those invisible forces. Learn to communicate clearly, resolve conflict before it festers, and bring your team back from the communication graveyard.

🔥 Electrical Safety: The Fire You Don’t See 🔌

Every October, Fire Prevention Week reminds us that safety starts long before a flame ever appears. Fire Prevention Week may be over, but the work of preventing fires goes well past the first week of october.

Many workplace fires start long before a flame appears. It begins with a spark, a frayed wire, or an overlooked electrical hazard. That’s where NFPA 70E: Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace comes in.

NFPA 70E helps you understand, control, and prevent electrical hazards that can lead to serious injuries or fires. Because the best fire is the one that never starts.

Protect your team, your equipment, and your peace of mind by staying current on electrical safety practices.

Learn more about NFPA 70E here: https://www.chesapeakesc.org/training/nfpa-70e-electrical-safe-work-practices-2/
