PublicSchoolWORKS Supports Public School Risk Institute (PSRI) and Efforts to Recognize School Safety Leaders 

Creating relationships with industry associations promotes better exchange of safety information with school personnel

 

Cincinnati, OH October 14, 2009 – School administrators are seeking new and proven ways to protect students and employees from injury.   The Public School Risk Institute (PSRI) is a national non-profit association whose mission it is to share best practices in school risk management.  PublicSchoolWORKS (PSW), an organization that helps districts manage safety requirements, educate individuals on safe work-related practices, and easily handle the amount of paperwork and reporting that accompanies safety issues, has become a corporate partner of PSRI in order to help the organization disseminate best practices to education.

 

“We feel very strongly about supporting the mission of PSRI,” said Tom Strasburger, Vice President of PSW. “As initiatives are started, we believe we can help deliver and reinforce PSRI risk management objectives with our clients and other educators who care about school safety.  We can also lend our expertise to the association as they are developing best practices and creating tools that all members of PSRI can share and implement.”    

 

“PSW became a supporter of PSRI early in our development,” said Lee Gaby, Executive Director for PSRI.  “PSW gave us networking advice and visibility at the 2008 ASBO International Annual Conference, which was extremely beneficial. We recently began brainstorming with PSW about an award and recognition program that would promote successful models of risk management in schools.”

  

“Schools have much to share with and teach others about safety measures. PSRI is the perfect organization to move an awards program forward,” said Strasburger. “As a company we have been thinking about a risk management award for schools for quite some time; we hope to soon see recognition that honors schools that are lowering their risk while providing safe working and learning environments.”
