The annual Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) Safety Belt Partnership “Be Ready. Be Buckled.” art contest for children of relatives in the truck and bus industries in grades K-6 (ages 5-12) has been extended to run through Wednesday, February 29, 2012!
The contest is held in conjunction with the American Society of Safety Engineers’ (ASSE) North American Occupational Safety and Health Week (May 6-12, 2012) celebrations aimed at increasing awareness about being safe on the job. The “Be Ready, Be Buckled” art contest focuses on urging truck, bus and all drivers to buckle up to save lives and reduce injuries. This year’s theme focuses on the motto “Safety Belts Save Lives!”
Children with a relationship with individuals or organizations in the trucking and bus industries can participate as per entry requirements.
Artwork that best illustrates “the importance of commercial motor vehicle drivers buckling up” with the overarching message “Safety Belts Save Lives” will win the grand prizes in each of the two age categories.
The winners of this contest will be honored at the 10th annual ASSE kids' “Safety-on-the-Job” poster contest awards ceremony in Washington, D.C. on May 7, 2012, as part of the North American Occupational Safety and Health (NAOSH) Week kick-off events.
