As a result, it is something we want you to be thinking about every day. It is not just for the big or dangerous jobs but for every job, every time. This Safety Resource Manual is intended to provide you with clear direction about CAP's safety program. I hope when reviewing it that you better understand why your safety, at work and at home, is so important. The content of this manual was developed by the CAP Safety Vision Support Team, the CAP Environmental, Health and Safety Department (EHS) and CAP Managers & Supervisors. The rules and programs are essential to maintaining a workplace free of safety-related incidents and injuries. Our goal for you after reviewing this manual is that you will be familiar with CAP's safety procedures and able to identify unsafe conditions that could lead to an injury, damage to equipment or interruption of work activities. It is also very important you fully understand the process for alerting others before starting work in an unsafe manner. The expectation at CAP is that every employee, no matter the job, will make safety a value. Please review this manual. Use it as a resource and if you have any questions, talk to the EHS Department or your supervisor or manager. By following the safe work practices outlined in the manual, and by watching out for each other, we can ensure that every employee returns home safe, every day.
