Safety and Risk Department As the Pandemic Continued. . .
We were still tasked with keeping our employees safe. Disinfecting shared equipment is still being practiced and was/has become second nature. Many departments purchased aerosol sprayers to use in the vehicles; counter tops and doorknobs are still being wiped down with sanitizing solutions. Hand sanitizer and masks are still a commodity made available for PPE. The Safety Department has a staff of 1 and is part of the Human Resources Department.

Lowest Number of Incidents in 6 Years. . . While we can brag about the lowest number of incidents in 6 years, it was by no means the least costly. The city suffered a huge loss when a caterpillar scraper was rolled at the landfill in May. Luckily, our employee was shaken up, but not hurt.
