Results: As of the 2003 review, this Partnership has implemented many
positive changes. The Park's safety committee composition has changed
to include more employee representatives. Generic programs and
policies have been reviewed and rewritten with employee input. The
Park has purchased a comprehensive data base that will allow the
safety office to fully inventory and digitally catalog all
permit-required confined spaces. Injury and illness cases have been
reduced, and near misses continue to be reported to evaluate safety
compliance. Additionally, the Park has contracted with GSA to develop
a comprehensive emergency action plan. |

Results: The Golden Gate National Recreational Area (GGNRA) uses a
computer-based Safety Management Information System (SMIS) to track
injuries and illnesses. SMIS incident rates have decreased over the
last four years, from 19.15 in 1999 to 5.45 in 2003. The decline in
incident rates can be attributed to hiring a full time safety and
health specialist, increasing communications about safety and safety
programs, changing work practices, participating in behavior based
safety training and investigating accidents more thoroughly. |

Overview: This Partnership is striving to
eliminate the risk of catastrophic fires and to prevent serious
illnesses and injuries to approximately 18,000 garment workers. The
agreement requires participant commitment to develop and maintain a
formal, written safety and health management system for each worksite
and associated staff housing, and to establish a joint
employer/employee safety and health team. Currently, 23 members of the
SGMA are participating in the Partnership.
Results: On an average, this Partnership participants' LWDI rate was
0.92, compared to 1.4 nationwide for SIC 23 (apparel & other textile
products) for CY2002. Partnership participants have hired or appointed
44 full-time safety and health managers. Partnership participants are
actively engaged in translating safety and health material into the
language of their workers (e.g., Mandarin, Korean, etc).
SGMA was a prime initiator in obtaining the Governor's Proclamation
designating the week of August 17, 2003 as Safety and Health Week. SGMA,
as a member of the Northern Marianas Alliance for Safety and Health,
played a major role in the Governor's 1st Annual Safety and Health
Conference, which attracted approximately 250 attendees. |

Overview: This agreement focuses on
establishment of safety and health management systems, and
identification of construction hazards and training needs. Participants
commit to having a safety manager at each construction project, and
employees will have representation on project safety teams and
participate in company safety audits.
Results: One of this Partnership's participants ensures that all
employees participate in site safety inspections and corrections at the
worksite. Another participant has corrected all identified safety
issues and is providing additional training for employees. The LWDI
rate for one Partnership participant decreased from 0.4 in 2002 to 0.0
in 2003.
Additionally, the 2004 evaluation report revealed that the participants
involved in this Partnership are doing regular safety inspections and
have identified many hazards and implemented immediate corrections.
Two-hundred and eighty employees received confined spaces, trenching,
scaffolding, fall protection, and the OSHA 10-Hour Course. |
