Safety
Safety is the cornerstone of the
work of the Division of Forestry. Whether it's in
the suppression of wildland fires or the management of our
state lands, we must always consciously work with safety
as our number one priority. The safety programs provide
the enhancement of specialized and technical skills necessary
to carry out the successful effort to protect and perpetuate
Florida's forest resources.
The Safety Office works closely with the Division of Forestry's
assistant director, bureau chiefs and deputy chiefs in the
development and administration of safety, EMS programs and
risk management issues.
The Safety Office within the Director's Office is responsible
for the researching, planning, designing, implementing,
directing, and evaluating of statewide safety programs for
the Division of Forestry. The Safety Office also conducts
systematic investigations and analysis of incidents involving
DOF personnel, programs and properties. |
