As we anticipate the upcoming solar eclipse on April 8th, it’s essential to make preparations to witness this awe-inspiring celestial event safely and enjoyably. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the sun and the Earth, casting a shadow on our planet and temporarily blocking out the sun’s light. To fully appreciate this rare phenomenon, consider gathering with friends and family or colleagues to observe it together. Remember to use proper eye protection, such as solar viewing glasses or a pinhole projector, to safeguard your eyes from the sun’s intense rays during the eclipse.

In 1984, the Canada Labour Congress established April 28th as the National Day of Mourning in Canada to remember and honour those who have died, been injured, or suffered illness in the workplace. The purpose of Day of Mourning is to remember and honour those lives lost or injured because of their work and to renew the commitment to prevent further deaths, injuries and diseases by improving health and safety in the workplace. Canadian flags on Parliament Hill and at Queen’s Park will fly at half-mast. Observe a moment of silence at 11:00 am, wear black and yellow ribbons, and share experiences with others about how workplace tragedies have impacted people’s lives.

Introducing a revolutionary addition to Report it: the Drawing Response question type! Ever find yourself wishing you could capture responses beyond mere text? Picture this: on your incident report form, prompt respondents to visually mark the areas of the body affected. Or, imagine a form where signing is essential – now it’s possible with our drawing feature.

With this innovative question type, the possibilities are boundless. Whether it’s a quick doodle or a formal signature, respondents can now express themselves visually. Customize dimensions, or even overlay background images for precise annotations on diagrams.

Just like our other question types, you have full control. Make it mandatory or optional, and offer hints or instructions for clarity. Elevate your forms with the power of visual communication.
