Safety Committee

Observe the plant floor for safety done right as well where improvement may be needed. This is accomplished by relaying the information to the EHS manager so he can properly commend or retrain a safety procedure. Monthly safety committee meetings to communicate what we have observed along with what has been repaired or replaced. I have served multiple six month terms while at Pretium Packaging.
