Dry Cleaners Guild of Missouri joins the National Safety Council in endorsing a nationwide seat belt promotion instituted by the drycleaning industry last month.
The campaign highlights posters that say: “DRESS UP and then BUCKLE UP, Your Professional Drycleaners CARES About You,” which is being displayed in Dry Cleaners Guild of Missouri member drycleaning stores locally, and others across the nation.
Since the campaign began, it has been applauded by many political offices and state and national organizations, including the National Safety Council.
The National Safety Council has its own continuous promotion to encourage seat belt usage and they are pleased to join the Dry Cleaners Guild of Missouri in the drycleaning industry’s promotion, which helps to reduce injuries and save lives.
The National Safety Council points out that more than 12,000 of the 44,600 people killed in 1983 would have been saved if they had been wearing seat belts.
The National Clothesline, a leading drycleaning publication which instituted this seat belt promotion, with help from the Dry Cleaners Guild of Missouri and other associations nationwide, is hoping that other industries will establish similar promotions to increase safety awareness.
