The Can- ada Safety Council is pleased to announce its 10th annual Na- tional Summer Safety Week, May 1-7, 1992. According to statistics pub- lished in 1991, 381 per cent of all accidents in 1987 (the last year for which there are complete statistics) occurred in the sum- mer months, for a staggering to- tal of 1,684,000 injuries. Recre- ation related injuries were second only to motor vehicle in- Juries when averaged over the entire year. Sports and recreational activ- ities led to the highest percent- age of broken bones, disloca- tions, sprains, strains, and bruises when compared to mo- tor vehicle, home and work. Al- though few of these injuries are ever life threatening, the 1.2 million recreation-related inju- ries recorded in1987 accounted for 8.7 million activity-loss days and 1.5 million bed disability days. Does it really matter? How many Canadians could this po- tentially affect? A recently published National survey (The Well-Being of Canadians, 1990) found that "80 per cent of the Canadian population (15 years +) spent an average of three or more hours per week at physi- cal recreation for at least nine months of the year." Barriers to active living are falling regular- ly: more work places are realiz- ing the benefits of a fit work force, more walking and cycling trails are being considered by corporate planners, and recrea- tion centres are becoming more flexible in their programing. Overall, the increase in activ- ity levels of Canadians from 1981 to 1988 would indicate that these measures are work- ing to promote active living in a country where 51 per cent of the work force now works in seden- tary settings. To mark the 10th anniver- sary of the National Summer Safety Week, May 1-7, we have developed a new summer safety pamphlet entitled "Exercising Safety" to coincide with the ac- tive living theme presented this year as part of Canada's 125th birthday celebration. The pamphlet congratulates Cana- dians on becoming more active during the '80's but, warns of the potential for injury. The pamphlet presents six easy-to- follow practices which will help keep Canadians injury-free while in pursuit of their favorite activity. Let's help Canada and Cana- dians to celebrate our 125th birthday by "exercising Safety" this summer and throughout Free pool school. ® Learn how to treat your pool right at our free BioGuard® pool care seminar.
