Two author/experts join our blog team

This Occupational Safety Blog has gotten great reader response in the eight months since I began writing it, and now we are going to make it even better by adding two author/experts to the writing team.

Fred Rine, CEO of FDRsafety and former Managing Director for Safety at FedEx, will focus on training issues and how companies can motivate workers to want to act safely in addition to requiring them to follow safety rules. Mike Taubitz, senior advisor to FDRsafety and former Global Director of Safety for General Motors, will be writing about the relationship between safety and efficient production and business processes. Both Fred and Mike will also write about general safety issues. I will continue writing about OSHA and general safety matters.

As always, we welcome your feedback about the blog or anything else related to safety. You can email us at frine@fdrsafety.com, jstanley@fdrsafety.com and mtaubitz@fdrsafety.com.
