Community Involvement.

Giving back is a core value of 1 Life Workplace Safety and Health and the company will continue striving to find organizations where they can make a real difference.

For the past 5 years, we have been involved with Habitat for Humanity, conducting free training of their supervisors and crew leaders, on site safety inspections and consultations, and assisting with the development and implementation of their safety management system.

In 2010 and 2011 1 Life Workplace donated more than $30,000 in safety training for Habitat volunteers.

In 2006, president, Theo Kowalchuk volunteered her professional safety management skills for 12 months at the global headquarters of the hospital charity Mercy Ships as the Assistant Safety Manager, Marine Operations.
