You will be required to attend an orientation at the facility that you are assigned to work. It is each employees responsibility to know and adhere to that facilities safety policies at all times. Please contact us if you do not understand this policy.
EMPLOYER'S RESPONSIBILITY: TDY's management remains committed and involved in workplace safety. We will conduct random safety inspections at your work site to ensure that you are working in a safe environment. Since you are contracted to work in facilities not owned or controlled by TDY, it is your responsibility to report any unsafe act or working conditions to your supervisor and to notify us immediately. We have a safety committee which will periodically review our policies and we will investigate accidents to help prevent future incidents.
EMPLOYEE'S RESPONSIBILITY: To play an active role in creating a safe and healthy workplace and comply with all applicable safety and health rules, employees may discuss and participate in any TDY safety and health related practice and may refuse to perform dangerous tasks without fear of discrimination. You will NOT be fired, demoted, or otherwise mistreated or discriminated against at work for voicing safety & health concerns.
