“WorkSafe Saskatchewan reminds every worker of their three fundamental rights in the workplace: The right to know what hazards are present, the right to participate in keeping the workplace healthy and safe and the right to refuse dangerous work. These rights are protected under The Saskatchewan Employment Act. When workers speak up and employers listen, everyone benefits. Safety is a shared responsibility—and it starts with knowing your rights. Together, we can make Saskatchewan workplaces safer.”

Giving your Product/Service a Voice
Not every product or service is easy to Promote. Some require more than a catchy slogan or a quick visual Ad—they need context, explanation, and definition. That’s where the power of an editorial comes in. Unlike a traditional visual advertisement, an editorial allows you to provide information, health benefits or tips, and the ability to explain why your product/service matters, or how it can solve a problem, alleviate pain, or assist with a situation. Readers engage with editorials differently than they do with Visual Ads. They’re not just being told to buy something—they’re being educated and informed beforehand.

Thermography and Breast Health
October is breast cancer awareness month, and preventative health care and early detection are important factors when it comes to breast health. DITI (Digital Thermal Imaging) or Thermography is a non-invasive assessment tool using an infrared camera. This helps to visualize inflammation and dysfunction in the body to assess problems in the vascular, muscular, neural, and skeletal systems. For breast health, DITI can help create a baseline of healthy breast activity, and yearly DITI follow-ups can help detect potential physiological changes and abnormalities. Since DITI looks for changes in physiology, it can be a great secondary measure alongside mammography.

In today’s digital world, many people spend hours on phones, computers, and tablets, which can strain the eyes and impact vision. Prolonged screen use often leads to digital eye strain, causing symptoms such as dryness, blurred vision, headaches, and difficulty focusing.

To protect vision, follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Adjusting screen brightness, maintaining good posture, and using blue light filters and ocular lubricants can also help. Regular eye exams are essential for long-term digital use eye health.
