Safety Survey

This week a team from Mission Safety International (MSI) is visiting MMS to conduct a Safety Survey of our program. It's a comprehensive survey of our entire operation in the hangar and in administration covering procedures, policies, personnel, relationships, family, facilities, and grounds all from the perspective of safety.

MMS subscribes to the safety services of MSI which includes safety training and a safety consultation each year, with a full survey done every three to five years. A large part of the information gathered is through individual interviews with each MMS associate and, if they're married, a separate interview with their spouse is scheduled as well. The interviews range from one hour to four hours in length. Here's picture of what you see throughout the administrative area right now--a lot of closed doors with this sign over the door handle:

With thirty-one individuals to be interviewed by Wednesday afternoon, the MSI team is staying very, very busy. All the administrative offices and the conference room are being used for interviews at various times.

Karen and I are scheduled for separate interviews on Wednesday morning.

MSI assembles and analyzes all the information in order to provide a report with recommendations for us to consider as we move ahead as an organization. The group will get the full report on Friday.
