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:
- Full management
support of our safety policies.
- Maintaining an
effective, comprehensive safety program.
- Identifying potential
risks and hazard awareness.
- 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.
