Safety

The safety of our employees is most important, and to guard it, the County tries to identify and eliminate employee exposures to avoidable hazards and conditions that can lead to injury, illness or accidents. Safety is everybody's job, and all employees are encouraged to remain alert and correct hazardous conditions and unsafe acts – if it is safe to do so – and/or report them to their supervisors.

Workers' Compensation is administered through the County's Risk Management Unit. For information regarding Workers' Compensation, contact the Risk Management Unit at 218-327-7348
