Alaska Workforce
Safety Week

SAFE. TRAINED. READY.

Alaska’s frontline workers face real risk every day — it’s time the whole state showed up for them. Alaska Workforce Safety Week is a statewide week of free and low-cost training, built on the safety expertise already here in Alaska, turning hands-on learning into real credentials and safer job sites.

Who this is for

Alaska Workforce Safety Week brings together three groups: the organizations that host training, the workers who attend, and the businesses that make it possible.
