<br /> <br /> RIVERSIDE PUBLIC UTILITIES <br /> Board Memorandum <br /> <br />BOARD OF PUBLIC UTILITIES DATE: MAY 23, 2022 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: RIVERSIDE PUBLIC UTILITIES SAFETY PROGRAM UPDATE <br />ISSUE: <br />Consider receiving an update on the Riverside Public Utilities Safety Program. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS: <br />That the Board of Public Utilities: <br />1. Receive an update on the Riverside Public Utilities Safety Program; and <br /> <br />2. Provide direction on the frequency of program updates to the Board. <br />DISCUSSION: <br />This update on the <br />for success in accomplishing our mission. Through our values of teamwork, integrity, <br />professionalism, and safety, the Safety Team, with the support of the RPU Executive Team, <br />promotes a strong safety culture at all levels of RPU. To support safety, the RPU Safety Team <br />has clear objectives, effective processes, and shares information using an improved safety <br />dashboard. By providing tools, training, and programs throughout the year, RPU strives to ensure <br />that all team members have the necessary knowledge, skills, and support to work safely. <br />Creating a safety culture at RPU begins and ends with the 500+ employees who provide safe and <br />reliable water and electric service to our customers. RPU team members do this every day, which <br />is why they often have the best ideas for how to work more safely. In 2022, RPU adopted a utility- <br />wide safety coordinator approach to staffing our safety program. Five staff from RPU were <br />assigned as safety coordinators within their respective divisions. These assignments will create a <br />more engaged safety culture across RPU. <br />In the last four years, RPU Safety has reported below the national average for OSHA reporting <br />injuries of 8.26 in similar organizations. is comparable with the <br />average reported from Publicly Owned Utilities, Public Agency of Safety Management for local <br />utilities, and the American Public Power Authority averages for recordable injuries in organizations <br />similar to RPU. <br /> <br />
