The Indiana Manufacturers Association launches Healthy Business Certification program

INDIANA – In manufacturing, a focus on a safe workplace is part of the culture. Indiana’s manufacturers have been at the forefront of personal protective equipment production and have also provided the model for safe work practices throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

While we have all learned many lessons about health and safety over the past year, the Indiana Manufacturers Association has doubled down on its commitment to maintaining safe workplaces and is proud to announce the rollout of the Healthy Business Certification program.

This 3-hour training program is designed for any individual who wants to acquire knowledge about existing best practices and better prepare for future pandemic responses. Participants will become familiar with the standards and regulations that OSHA, the Center for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), and the World Health Organization (WHO) have put in place to ensure all employees function in a healthy work environment. Participants will receive a ready-made template for creating their own company Business Prevention Plan.

At the completion of the course, and after submission of their company’s Business Prevention Plan, participants will receive a Healthy Business Certification letter, certificate, and decal, as well as a digital SHRM badge earning them 0.3 CEUs. Certification is good for one year and must be renewed annually.

Class size is limited to 25 and spots will fill quickly. To learn more or enroll in the next upcoming training session, visit the IMA’s Healthy Business Certification program webpage
