Invest in your safety and the safety of the animals you love. Enroll in the Safety Summit today!
This summit is vital for all professional pet groomers, salon owners, managers, mobile groomers, housecall groomers, grooming apprentices, and anyone responsible for the care and safety of animals in a grooming environment.
Personal Safety for Pet Groomers
Women account for 72.5 percent of all nonfatal workplace violence cases, with an annualized incidence rate of 5.0 cases per 10,000 full-time workers, which is significantly higher than the rate for men at 1.4 cases per 10,000 full-time workers. That statistic is simply in the workplace, add in trade shows, travel, and life in general, it’s best you know your vulnerabilities before they’re used against you.
Safety Equipment
How many times have you wished there was something, anything to help you groom the blind, deaf, ancient, senile pet that’s more interested in trying to jump off the table you are so desperately trying to keep them on? How many times did you wish you had a third hand to help you soothe a pet that needed a bit of emotional support while getting through a blowout? We’ll explore all of the options available to make our jobs easier and the pets’ lives so much better!
Emergency Preparedness
After an emergency has occurred, it is far too late to prepare for it. So let’s get your ducks in a row now, before you need them to be there. Rabid squirrels running amok won’t help when that tornado warning comes and you have no idea what to do with yourself, the pets in your care, or your staff.
