annually in a relatively small 6-plex circular cinema for an initial

investment of approximately $2500!

SAFETY MANAGEMENT: Authored, implemented and administered the Health &

Safety Program for a national company with over 7,500 employees. For over

11 years I was the company's Safety Specialist and Corporate Trainer. When

promoted to Regional Safety Director in 1996, I became the Corporate

Department Head. I have written & maintained all necessary individual

Safety Programs such as Lockout/Tagout, Hazard communication and

Ergonomics. My extensive industry-specific and standardized Safety & Health

Program was created for a multi-jurisdictional area eliminating the need

for multiple plans and paving the way for attainment of a Company Safety

Culture. This Safety Program resulted in the company's decision to raise

the cap for worker's compensation claims from $250,000 to $350,000 per

incident resulting in substantial insurance savings for the company! This

program was also awarded an annual $75,000 insurance premium discount (5-

year cap / $375,000 / 16 buildings / approximately $4687 per building

annually for 5 years) by the OHIO BWC for meeting specified guidelines.

Every facility demonstrated a marked reduction in not on employee accidents

(approximately 60% in the first 5 years) but also a reduction in customer

accidents (approximately 50% in the first 5 years). In addition to a

decline in frequency of accidents, the severity of injuries also was

dramatically reduced (based on claims' costs).

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT: I have also been permitted to represent the majority

of companies that I have worked for in matters of community service and

have had the opportunity to work with local police and fire departments,

The Michigan Humane Society, various city officials, and other assorted

fund drives & charities.

CERTIFICATIONS: * OSHA 10-Hour and 30-Hour (STAC- Safety Training and

Consulting / Jasper IN.), Bloodborne Pathogens, TIPS and Genie Industries
