Drive Safely Work Week

ROBINS AIR FORCE BASE, Ga. -- Team Robins is joining the journey to safe driving during Drive Safely Work Week which runs Tuesday through Oct. 16.

This year marks the 19th year of the DSWW campaign sponsored annually by the Network of Employers for Traffic Safety.

Founded in 1989, the NETS is an employer-led public-private partnership dedicated to improving the safety and health of employees, their families, and members of the communities in which they live and work, by preventing traffic crashes that occur both on and off the job.

The 78th Air Base Wing Installation Safety Office will use the DSWW sponsored campaign to place emphasis on the importance of driving safely on and off duty to prevent driving -related mishaps. 

During the campaign supervisors and leaders are encouraged to take time to discuss the potential hazards of vehicle operations and related activities both on and off duty with their personnel. Training materials have been sent to units through their workflow boxes.
