County Safety Program
Polk County Safety Program
The Polk County Board of Commissioners commitment to safety will strive to create a workplace in which employees can reasonably expect to have a career free of workplace injury and illness due to unsafe work conditions. Safety is a core value of our everyday culture, and we are committed to continually enhancing safety policies by instructing everyone from executive management to the most recently hired trainee to understand the importance of maximizing workplace safety. By following safe work practices the risks of workplace injury and illness are minimized or often eliminated. Safety Topics/Training Materials
