NAOSH week allows employers, employees, health and safety associations and the public a time to focus on the importance of preventing injury and illness in the workplace, at home and in the community.
The success of NAOSH Week is rooted in a community-based approach. Employers and health and safety associations and organizations plan events and activities during the week of May 6 to May 12, 2012, to promote workplace health and safety during North American Occupational Health and Safety Week.

I believe that it would be better if the Safety and Health week (or even month) should be celebrated world wide. If this can be done triannually, all the better because safety and health policies are something that we benefit from relearning.
