Safe: Not Sorry!

Jan 16, 2002 4:27 PM

Dear Colleague:

This booklet for UFT members grew out of a Federation of Nurses/UFT Professional Issues Conference. The Police Department's Crime Prevention Task Force gave a workshop there on how our nurses could improve their personal safety and avoid becoming victims of crime here in New York City.

We found these ideas so valuable that we wanted to share them with all UFT members. Our safety experts at the UFT have added other recommendations based on incidents involving our members — nurses, teachers and others we represent.

Please read this booklet carefully and take care of yourself. The tips here could save your property — and your life.

Sincerely,

Randi Weingarten
President
