Safety Practices for Water Utilities (6 Revised edition)

When it comes to being safe on the job, employees need training in three things: knowledge, action, and attitude.

Knowledge informs them about the hazards of a material, such as chlorine, or of an activity, such as trenching.

Actions involve properly putting that knowledge into use.

Attitude means safety first. Employees need all three to stay accident-free. The perfect tool for water utility managers and other employees who have been assigned safety program responsibilities, AWWA M3 Safety Practices for Water Utilities addresses these three safety components for each of the main safety areas encountered in water utilities: hazardous materials; confined spaces; hazardous energy; personal protective equipment; respiratory equipment; vehicles; tools construction sites; facilities.

Includes ready-to-copy-and-use safety forms and safety signs.
