OSHA Publishes Waste Treatment Facility 'Design for Safety' Case Study

A case study describing how the Washington Group International incorporated its design for safety process into the construction of the U.S. Department of Energy's Advanced Mixed Waste Treatment Facility in eastern Idaho was recently posted on OSHA's Web site. The study, "Washington Group International Designs and Builds a Mixed-Waste Treatment Facility," was developed through the OSHA and Washington Group International alliance. As a result of the Washington Group's efforts, the positive impact on the safety and health of the project's employees and its bottom-line costs was significant, including 3.3 million hours without a lost time injury or one day away from work.
