Official Copy Right Notice of SAFTENG.net, LLC.
UPDATED 1/3/10
There has been a lot of confusion over how the SAFTENG.net materials may be used. Without all the legal jargon this is it...
as a member of the SAFTENG.net network you are encouraged to use these materials at your facility to raise the awareness and better train your workers in safety and health. You have the rights to paste the materials in training presentations, on bulletin boards, in newsletters, etc. I started this site to help make other safety pro's jobs easier and with the hopes that some of the materials just may wake up some workers somewhere in this world. I only charge $25/year because the membership rights apply ONLY to those who are CURRENT MEMBERS. As long as you continue to support the site either by financial payment or by safety material contributions, you have the rights to use the materials from the site. As soon as your membership expires and you choose to not support my efforts any longer, your rights to use the SAFTENG.net materials cease. This means you MUST remove the SAFTENG.net materials from your presentations, your computer hard drive, your company network, etc.
Here is all the legal jargon...
