SAFETY SPOTLIGHT

Staff Sgt. Craig Holland is the epitome of an outstanding ground safety manager. Upon his arrival at Combat Logistics Regiment 17 (CLR-17), he undertook the task of rebuilding the safety program for a high-operation tempo unit composed of over 1,500 Marines. A thorough and creative problem solver, Holland implemented and supervised multiple lines of effort, addressing a variety of safety issues and areas of concern. For example, he implemented a useful application called SafeSite that assists safety representatives with the ability to conduct timely, monthly safety inspections

and report mishaps within the work environment. Furthermore, he focused on training and educating Marines about safety throughout his regiment, providing supervisory safety training to more than 100 staff noncommissioned officers and officers. Holland’s efforts have created and sustained a positive safety culture within the command. His skillful synchronization of personnel and resources enabled CLR-17 to exceed the Marine Corps Safety Management System’s prescribed 85% standard.
