Andrew Hann Memorial
Andrew Hann died on July 13, 2013 when he fell while building scaffolding at the Agrium potash mine southwest of Saskatoon. The Andrew Hann Memorial Scholarship was created for the Occupational Health and Safety Practitioner program students at Saskatchewan Polytechnic. For at least the next 20 years, the scholarship will provide Sask Polytech students with funding towards their education each year.
“Maybe by telling Andrew’s story it will make one person stop and think about the decision they are about to make and our workers will go home safe. People really need to know the importance of workplace safety to protect themselves and their coworkers. Thinking that nothing will happen to me, everything will be ok, but accidents happen and the best way to avoid them is to follow the safety procedures.” said Andrew’s mother, Karen Hann
