The health and safety of Sandia employees are of paramount concern. Our goal is for all employees to leave work in the same condition in which they arrived at work. We believe that job-related injuries and illnesses are avoidable and unacceptable and that every employee is responsible and accountable for improving the work environment.
Sandia managers continually remind staff members of their responsibility to perform their work safely and of their right to stop work at any time if they have concerns about their health or safety. In addition, each time an employee makes an office move or begins work in a new location, that employee must receive an ergonomic evaluation to reduce the possibility of injuries caused by the workplace setup.
To further promote the health and safety of our employees, Sandia/California offers many on-site programs. For example, employees can make a free appointment with a trainer at our fitness facility to set up an appropriate exercise routine. Sandians are also welcome to take advantage of our on-site massage services and exercise classes. In addition, Sandia provides an on-site dietician who will meet with employees at no cost to discuss healthy eating habits, as well as regular cooking seminars where employees can learn how to prepare healthy meals. Finally, Sandia/California has an on-site medical facility that provides urgent care for our employees.
