CITY OF LINO LAKES
RESOLUTION NO. 17 - 93
RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE LINO LAKES SAFETY POLICY
WHEREAS, the Lino Lakes City Council considers accident prevention
to be of prime importance, and
WHEREAS, accident control involves the safety and well-being of
all employees and the public, and
WHEREAS, accident control minimizes costs and directly reduces
budgeted costs, and
WHEREAS, the Lino Lakes City Council desires to provide a safe
working environment for its employees,
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF LINO LAKES,
MINNESOTA:
1. Employees will be provided with all reasonable safeguards
to ensure safe working conditions.
2. Employees will be provided with neat, clean, safe,
attractive, and healthful working conditions.
3. All equipment, tools, and machines will be maintained in
good repair.
4. Safe Work methods will be studied and developed and all
employees will be trained in these methods.
5. All federal, state and local laws regarding accident
prevention and working conditions will be adhered to.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED:
The Lino Lakes City Council recognized that more than safety
is involved, because the existence of accident hazards is
proof of a wasteful, inefficient operation. Accidents lead to
complaints, dissatisfaction, interference with work plans, and
loss of good will.
The Lino Lakes City Council further recognizes that the
success of the Lino Lakes Safety Policy depends on the
sincere, constant and cooperative effort of all employees and
`- their active participation and support.
Adopted by the Lino Lakes City Council this 12th day of April,
