Bovis Lend Lease and Maryland Occupational Safety and Health (MOSH) have entered into a Cooperative Compliance Partnership (CCP). The signing of the agreement took place at the Upper Chesapeake Medical Center Project on June 5th, 2006.
Bethesda, MD (PRWEB) June 22, 2006 -— Bovis Lend Lease and Maryland Occupational Safety and Health (MOSH) have entered into a Cooperative Compliance Partnership (CCP). The signing of the agreement took place at the Upper Chesapeake Medical Center Project on June 5th, 2006. Those celebrating the partnership included officials from the Maryland Department of Labor as well as representatives from MOSH and the Bovis Lend Lease team at Upper Chesapeake Medical Center.
“The Upper Chesapeake Team recognizes and understands proper safety planning and partnering with MOSH can foster an Incident and Injury Free workplace. This partnership allows all stakeholders to share and learn best practices from our experiences and build upon them,” said Sissy Martin, Area Environmental Health and Safety Director of Safety for Bovis Lend Lease.
The purpose of CCP is to recognize employers, such as Bovis Lend Lease, with proactive and stringent safety and health programs that are rated above industry standards. Given that Bovis Lend Lease and MOSH have entered into an alliance with one another, MOSH will now conduct scheduled jobsite visits, in lieu of programmed, unannounced visits. This is the second CCP between MOSH and Bovis Lend Lease. The first CCP was formed in November of 2004 with Holy Cross Hospital.
