A partnership of local businesses co-sponsored by Xenia Area Chamber of Commerce and Ohio BWC

Local businesses have a tool to help them create a safer work environment and save money on Workers’ Compensation premiums. In partnership with the Bureau of Workers’ Compensation Division of Safety and Hygiene, the Xenia Area Chamber of Commerce, Beavercreek Chamber of Commerce, and Bellbrook-Sugarcreek Chamber of Commerce jointly hosted a meeting in May 2007, to establish the feasibility of a Greene County Safety Council.  As a result of that meeting, the Greene County Safety Council is now a reality and has been operating successfully since July 2007.  Businesses do NOT have to be Chamber members to be part of the Safety Council.  We have made every attempt to keep the Safety Council membership fees reasonable to encourage business involvement.

ALiCE, Surviving the Active Shooter: Most institutions and organizations rely on traditional stand-alone “lockdown” protocols that can be deadly if you are in a location which cannot be secured or your secure location is breached by the intruder.  When faced with an Active Shooter, the ALiCE Program, (Alert, Lockdown, inform, Counter, Evacuate) prepares individuals who may find themselves facing a violent intruder.  A comprehensive approach integrates strategies using environmental design, technology, communication, law enforcement response and proactive mindset for those in immediate danger.
