Protecting Outdoor Workers Exposed to Ticks – NPMA Survey Results Jim Fredericks

DESCRIPTION

A recent NPMA survey reveals that all responding outdoor workers exposed to ticks are aware of Lyme disease. However, interest in receiving further educational materials for both employees and customers is significant. The low response rate may indicate a broader lack of concern or awareness about tick-borne diseases within the industry. This underscores the need for enhanced education and resources aimed at preventing tick exposure and Lyme disease, emphasizing the importance of protecting outdoor workers and informing clients about potential risks.
