Regional Safety Management
Program
Helping communities instill a safe work environment through
training, quality programs and hands on leadership |

The Wisconsin
Department of Commerce (DCOMM) Administrative Code 32.11 states:
“Each employer shall develop and implement a safety and health program
that describes the procedures, methods, processes and practices used to
manage workplace safety and health.”

The fact is that most Wisconsin communities do not have the
resources to individually maintain an adequate safety compliance
program. MEUW’s Regional Safety Program brings several municipalities
with similar needs together to share the investment and benefits
of a safety coordinator.
Benefits of participating in a Regional Safety Group
- Mandatory written programs are tailored for your specific location, and updated as required
- Training programs are up to date and presented by a qualified instructor
- Several communities share in the investment
- MEUW provides guidance and supervision of the coordinator
- The coordinator visits your location regularly to work on written policies, provide training, and visit work sites as projects progress
- Employees' confidence and work practices improve, thus improving productivity

BENEFITS FOR YOUR ENTIRE MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT |
Meeting State mandated occupational
health and safety requirements are a challenge for all city
departments. The Regional Safety Programs' customized written
programs and site specific training are tailored to meet the needs
of all of your municipal departments including:
- Public Works
- Electric Utility
- Water/Wastewater
- Parks & Recreation
- Police/Fire
- Cemetery

- Senior Center/Nursing Home

"I'm not sure how a village the
size of Muscoda could maintain compliance with all the training, written
programs and regulations. MEUW's Regional Safety Program is the
perfect tool for village and city administrators who want to be
compliant, but also want their employees to learn proper safety
procedures."
Anthony Broadbent, Village President, Village of Muscoda |
