Vail Resorts has announced that starting with the 2009-10 winter season all employees snowboarding or skiing on on the clock at any of its five resorts will be required to wear helmets, according to a story on Forbes.com.
Vail also will require helmets for all children age 12 and under who take group lessons through its schools, and helmets will be part of the resort’s children’s rental packages unless parents or guardians sign a waiver.
We expect to see more of this in the future. And it sounds like a good idea.
