APRIL 2001                                                                          VOLUME 3, ISSUE 2

MESSAGE FROM MANAGEMENT

             The following is the preface of a booklet called The Employee Handbook for Organizational Change by Price Pritchett and Ron Pound.  It sounds like words for us to live by right now.

 WHAT ARE YOUR OPTIONS?

                 If you try to ignore the situation, change will slam into you and knock you off balance.

                Getting angry won't make it go away - in fact, temper typically makes things worse.

                Wishful thinking is a waste of time, too, so don't sit around thinking and talking about "the good old days" with the hope they'll return.

                You can't even run away from it, because there's no place you can run that's beyond the range of change.

                Might as well face the problems and find the opportunities. 

                How you think, and how you act, become very important during times like these.  Obviously, you won't be able to control everything that happens to you.  But you're in complete control of how you respond to what happens.

                This is the Age of Instability, where managing change is everybody's job.

SAFETY TEAM NEWS

  The Safety Team attended an OSHA Seminar on February 15 presented by the Boone Area Chamber of Commerce.  It was held at Commercial Federal Bank.  The speaker was Jens Nissen from OSHA Consultation and Education Division.  He presented an update on OSHA regulations last February and returned this year to cover some of these topics in greater detail. 

                  Although OSHA's proposed ergonomics standard has been knocked out, the safety team has decided to continue on with our project.  Even though this standard has been outlawed, chances are that we will end up somewhere down the road with another ruling on ergonomics from OSHA. 

  So you may see us out and around the plant with a video camera taping employees doing their jobs.  The safety team will then review the tapes to look for unsafe ergonomic conditions.  This is one of the ways we have of looking at how safely tasks are being performed and what we can do to change some potentially dangerous procedures.  Thanks for your help in advance.
