Our staff regularly receives information on and works to identify hazards, recommending courses of action that assure mission accomplishment and maintain readiness. By integrating consolidated risk management into all aspects of our missions, leader development, and everyday activities, the office works to ensure Fort Meade is a safe place for people to work and live. We proudly partner with installation tenant commands to magnify, streamline, and consolidate safety support.
Occupational Safety and Health Program
(Workplace Safety - AR 385-10, Chapter 16)
This program prescribes policy and responsibility for the implementation of the OSHA program mandated by Federal and state regulations. Its purpose is to reduce the risk of accidental losses, injuries, and occupational illnesses to the military and Army civilian workforce as required by EO 12196, 29 CFR 1960, and DODI 6055.1.
The OSHA programs are implemented in all Army operations (CONUS and OCONUS), with the exception of military-unique operations as defined within regulations. Procedures for occupational or workplace safety are outlined in DA PAM 385-10.
Reporting a Safety Hazard: Call 301-677-2396. Department of the Army Form 4755 (Employee Report of Alleged Unsafe or Unhealthful Working Conditions) is provided to assist with complaints, but is not the exclusive means to register a complaint with the local Safety Office. (Reference the OSHA Safety Poster on the rights of employees and their representatives).
SOHAC Meetings: Safety and Occupational Health Advisory Committee meetings are held at 1:30 p.m. on the 2nd Thursday of January and July at Pershing Hall.
