2 Reducing Workplace Fatalities: The Little Things Matter  Recently, NIOSH gathered information on why Wyoming workers have the highest workplace fatality rate in the nation  The national rate in 2008 was 3.6 fatal work injuries per 100,000 full-time equivalent workers; the rate in Wyoming was 17.1 – more than 4.5 times the national rate  There were 210 workplace fatalities in Wyoming from 2003 to 2007; of those, 136 were in transportation and more than half of those workers didn’t wear seatbelts  It was likely, more than 60 lives could have been saved if workers in Wyoming buckled up before getting behind the wheel  BNL performs spot checks to see if workers are wearing their seatbelts; at C-AD, workers face disciplinary action after multiple tickets for moving-vehicle infractions

3 PPM Walkthrough After the Holidays  PPM criticized C-AD for housekeeping and security following the last walkthrough  The follow up to the report on the previous walkthrough required numerous meetings to discuss issues and months of documentation effort  Preparations for the walkthrough are a Departmental priority  Organize your workplaces; move excess materials out of the workplace  Dispose of short reels of copper cable; PPM and DOE have focused on this issue as a vulnerability and they cannot be convinced otherwise  Stephanie, Dave and Paul will assess readiness for C-AD 3
