Joint Loss Management Safety Committee

Every employee of the Town of Freedom has the right to a workplace free from safety and health hazards (Lab 1403.01).  A “Joint Loss Management” program is designed to prevent incidents and illnesses, and is established jointly between the employees and the management of the Town.  Unsafe acts, unsafe conditions and incidents all demonstrate a weakness in the management system.  This program provides the framework and structure for safety concerns to be managed like any other function of government through planning, organization, leadership, control and communication.  It is an established fact that a well-trained, well-disciplined and well-supervised employee operating in a safe and healthful environment is less likely to have an incident.
