Today marks the first day of Building Safety Month 2023, the International Code Council’s 43rd annual campaign designed to increase awareness of building safety issues in homes, schools and other global buildings.
“This year’s theme, ‘It Starts with You’, invites people to consider how building safety impacts nearly every part of their lives including their homes and families,” said Code Council President Michael Wich, CBO. “During Building Safety Month, we encourage people to become more aware of the building codes and standards that protect us from harm. We hope it leads to more discussions around what we can all do to create safer spaces to live, work and play.”
