Hydration is often a second thought during a rigorous work day, but it should be a primary focus. See the FREAS SharePoint page under Safety for more information on this topic and previous Weekly Safety Messages.

John’s message is provided on the link below. Let’s be sure to review all potential hazards before performing each job, no matter how routine the task may be.
