Other regions adopted this program as a best practice after it significantly reduced the workers compensation claims

and other contaminants. While at both the Bethesda Naval Hospital and the Western USGS Region, I ensured

compliance with organizations such as the USACE and regulating authorities such as the Joint Commission on
