Fighting Fatigue

Daylight Savings Time Safety

Jobsite Housekeeping
Housekeeping is an essential part of everyone’s responsibility in FREAS. After completing a task/job, clean up the work area and place all waste material in the proper disposal container. If you determine that a special cleaning process may be needed, contact the Custodial Supervisor prior to starting the work for their input. Create a child work order in Maximo for Custodial support. Materials and supplies should only be placed in their approved storage location.
