We need your Feedback!! 

The HFC Safety Council and the Greater Wilmington HRA would like to better understand the need for occupational health services in the tri-county region.

At last week's meeting, we distributed a 16 question survey related to occupational health and workers' compensation issues at your local work location. If you did not get a chance to complete the survey at the meeting (and many thanks to those who did!), we would greatly appreciate if you could take a few minutes and fill it out using the below form.

All individual response data will be kept confidential by the Safety Council and the HRA; only aggregate data will be shared with the members. Thank you in advance for your feedback!
