REALTORS® face job-related risks every day. In an ongoing effort to keep safety top-of-mind for our members, the National Association of REALTORS® and RASCW dedicate September as REALTOR® Safety Month. The goal: reduce the number of safety incidents that happen in the industry so each of our members makes it home safely every night.

1. Plan Your Safety Strategy

3. Training Videos
4. Personal Protection Resources
