<br /> <br /> RIVERSIDE PUBLIC UTILITIES <br /> Board Memorandum <br /> <br />BOARD OF PUBLIC UTILITIES DATE: AUGUST 22, 2022 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: RIVERSIDE PUBLIC UTILITIES SAFETY PROGRAM METRICS ON SAFETY <br />INJURIES AND COVID-19 STATISTICS UPDATE AS OF JULY 28, 2022 <br />ers. RPU considers safety to be essential for <br />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 />The Safety Team, led by the Safety and Training Manager, has collaborated with <br />Safety Team to report all COVID-19 cases directly to RPUDeputy General Manager. This <br />reporting level demonstrates the importance of safety in our organization. This greater coverage <br />will result in an increase of safety for all RPU during the COVID-19 pandemic. <br /> <br />RPU has updated the Safety Dashboard with OSHA Metrics Reports, Division Safety Risk Levels, <br />Nature of Injures, Type of Incidents by month, and Claims Cost. Moving forward, the RPU Security <br />Governance Committee will review these metrics regularly to develop objectives to improve our <br />performance. Development of leading metrics, such as training hours, frequency of tailboard <br />meetings, and safety audits will require us to create uniform processes and recording across the <br />department. That work will be undertaken in the coming months and reflected in future reports as <br />the data becomes available. <br />Attachment: Presentation <br /> <br />
