Chakana Mayo, pharmacy technician

I had an injury in at my previous job. It was due to the workstation not being appropriate for my height. I had talked about the issues I had with my workstation for years and unfortunately no attention was brought to it until an injury occurred....My hand actually locked up in the middle of work. When I came to this pharmacy, I wanted to make sure that no one else went through that experience. That’s why I become a workplace safety champion.
