The primary objective of the Maricopa County Safety & Loss Control Programs is to protect the County against losses which would significantly affect our personnel, operation, property, budget, and ability to fulfill our responsibilities to the public. Objectives of the Safety Division's programs are, on behalf of management, to direct all efforts toward reducing occupational and operational risks that can threaten the continuity of the service we provide and to maintain budget integrity. These objectives can be accomplished by:

  1. Full management support of our safety policies.
  2. Maintaining an effective, comprehensive safety program.
  3. Identifying potential risks and hazard awareness.
  4. Training employees in safe work practices.

Safety is a total team effort! As Maricopa County continues to develop its future strategies in safety management systems, it is necessary that each level of management must take a greater role in safety development. Management commitment and front line supervision accountability is the key to sustaining the safety process and reducing unsafe work practices.
