• Description:
  Eating on the job can be problematic if your office is in the middle of the woods, in a pasture or on a fishing vessel. You may not have the accommodations to heat your food or have access to a refrigerator. The fundamental concept is to fill your cupboard and/or refrigerator with the right foods and pack healthy, filling meals and snacks. Protein and essential nutrient packed foods give you the energy you need and help you to stay productive during work. For example, a thermos can keep soup or coffee warm, while an ice pack can keep yogurt, cheese, eggs and meat at the right temperature. Thermoses and coolers come in various shapes and sizes; choose the appropriate container to best fit your work environment. This safety blast also includes healthy tips and a table showing "eat this, not this". [Description provided by NIOSH]
