Every worker
deserves to come home as healthy as when he or she went to work. The
IAM's Occupational Safety and Health Department protects workers'
interests by working directly with federal agencies such as the Labor
Department, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Mine Safety and
Health Administration. But safety laws alone can't protect workers. The
IAM believes that educated workers, along with strong safety laws, make
safe workplaces.
The Safety and
Health Department holds yearly conferences for training in safety issues
such as ergonomics; OSHA law; chemical awareness; Canadian safety law;
pending safety legislation; and setting up local Safety and Health
Committees.
The Corporation for Re-employment and Safety Training
(CREST) is a non-profit corporation sponsored by the IAM. The CREST
program helps disabled workers return to productive employment and
provides safety training services.
The Apprenticeship program seeks to
pass on critical workplace skills and create opportunities for
employment in American industry.
The IAM Scholarship Fund provides scholarships to members and their
children to attain a bachelor's degree or vocational/technical
certification. Scholarship recipients are determined in a competition
among eligible applicants that is judged by a special Selection
Committee.
