I began with Pratt Industries as Safety Manager, directing all safety issues for 3 Box Plants, 2 Recycling Centers, and 1 Paper Mill. Reporting directly to the General Manager for each location, I analyzed each facility, providing consultation regarding loss potential and advising and implementing new accident-prevention, loss-control, and safety programs. I devised evaluation methods to examine efficacy of existing safety programs and presented findings along with accident statistics to management and executives at safety meetings. My new safety programs achieved dramatic improvements, significantly reducing work-related injuries and directly increasing bottom-line profitability.I researched and incorporated “Behavior Based Safety” (BBS) principles into my new safety programs and conducted training classes for all levels of staff, catering to the specific needs of each separate work-group. Within the first year, recordable accidents had been reduced by 60% and remained such throughout my tenure. Additionally, recycling incidents reduced by 90%, “near miss” reports by 50%, and workers’ comp claims decreased by 30%. As the overall safety incident rate improved by 67%, there were no lost-time injuries reported during my last 2 years as Safety Manager.

Conducting approximately 25 inspections per month, I toured manufacturing and production-based facilities throughout Georgia to perform detailed analyses of work practices, work environment, machinery, and equipment, identifying and bringing into compliance hazardous or unhealthy working conditions. Relying on an extensive knowledge of safety-engineering practices, protective devices, and governmental safety and health standards, I consulted with Plant Operations Managers and Supervisors on needed changes to ensure safety of personnel and plant facilities. Maintaining contact with staff of all levels, I also investigated accidents, photographed work environments, and documented findings as evidence in legal proceedings, testifying when needed. With a goal to reduce workplace injuries, I presented “Safety Pays” training for the Savannah Chapter of the American Society of Engineers and conducted oral and written presentations for employers during outreach training endeavors. I was chosen for the OSHA National Reinvention team and also assisted in the preparation of the Savannah area office Power Press Guarding Initiative, a National Emphasis Program (NEP) geared toward reducing amputations and Power Press-related injuries.
