Chapter 1 – Program Overview<br />
Health and Safety<br />
Safety is a very important subject. The Commonwealth of <strong>Massachusetts</strong> and its<br />
partners are firmly committed to maintaining a safe and healthy working environment at all<br />
project facilities. Safety and health are Parsons’ highest core values and are a responsibility<br />
shared by everyone. Parsons strives to continuously monitor and improve our safety and<br />
health processes.<br />
A proactive approach to safety is the best way to prevent unnecessary accidents. Your<br />
safety and well being is priceless. We encourage every inspector to make safety his or her top<br />
priority. Meeting safety and health objectives require the combined efforts of everyone in an<br />
organization. Investing time and energy to acquire the knowledge and skills to understand<br />
safe work practices could save your life and prevent serious injury to you and others. Safety<br />
training is recommended in the areas of chemical hazards, general safety, and emergency<br />
preparedness.<br />
As vehicles and equipment are involved, performing an inspection could have<br />
potential hazards. In order to have a safe and productive environment, we suggest the<br />
following safety items be available at a minimum:<br />
� First Aid Kit<br />
� Eyewashes and safety shower<br />
� Fire extinguishers<br />
� Emergency exits<br />
� Adequate ventilation<br />
� Clean work area<br />
� Properly lit area<br />
� Protective clothing<br />
� Hand and foot protection<br />
