Basic office emergency kit - Many of us stand a 25% chance of being at work when a disaster strikes. A survival kit could make your stay safer and more comfortable. These basic supplies could easily fit in a small container kept in or under your desk.
Tip: Wear sturdy footwear to work and change into your work shoes when you get there. This way you will have appropriate footwear with you should you have to make it home on foot.
Most of us spend many hours in our vehicles each week. Anything from a traffic jam to a major disaster could force us to rely on our vehicles for short-term shelter. Here are some guidelines for the supplies you will need.
Tip: Keep your gas tank at least ½ full, especially in winter.
Tip: To keep your feet dry, put plastic bags over your socks before putting on your shoes.

We know the promise of sunny days in the future is exciting, but don't let it distract you from prioritizing your health and safety. Taking appropriate precautions and safety measures is key when heading out to reconnect with Mother Nature, even if you're doing something as simple as riding a bicycle. Plus, several health awareness initiatives will take center stage this month. From mental illness in children to common food allergies, be on the lookout for many helpful tips to maintain a healthy mind and body!
