SECTION I
POLICY, ORGANIZATION, AND PROGRAM (1)
Accident prevention is not a static problem. The initial
step toward providing a safe environment in which to live is to
correct the physical hazards. However, this alone is not enough.
It is equally if not more important to develop an attitude of
safety consciousness in the minds of the individuals who are in
residence or employed at the White House. In order to accomplish
both these objectives, it is important to establish a safety or-
ganization and program which will serve as a means of providing
continuing action for the prevention of accidents. The policy,
organization, and program set forth below applies to the office
staff and the maintenance staff.
