Safety is a WCTD core value
Our Summer Tracker theme!
We don’t have to tell you that the Summer service season is now in full swing, with stores across the country seeing to the needs of the car traveling public. However, when times are busy it’s even more crucial to pay close attention to all matters of safety.
In this issue we look at the various ways you can nurture and build upon the ‘Safety Culture’ of your organization, as well as how best to look after the well-being of both staff and customers. Also related, we revisit best practices for safe roadside service and, specifically, the topic of effective warning lights for service vehicles.
If Summer’s here, sorry, Winter can’t be far behind. An interesting TRAC survey tells us that the winter tire market across Canada continues to grow by a considerable margin. Check it out for some revealing statistics that might assist you in planning your upcoming snow tire campaign.
There’s more, of course, from the ban on lead wheel weights that takes effect early in 2024, to advice from Federated Insurance on how to respond to customers who insist on bypassing TPMS.
If you’re in the area there’s still time to register for WCTD Alberta’s Charity Golf Tournament, June 25th at Stony Plain Golf Course, to benefit the Stollery Children’s Hospital. You can find registration forms on pages 25- 27. Come join us! We’d love to see you for a great day of golf, with fantastic prizes plus silent and live auctions.
Last but not least, the August 15th deadline for WCTD Academic Scholarship applications is fast approaching. Make sure all those eligible within your network know how to apply!
