2011 was a big year for the Texas Department of Transportation, and it was a small year as well. In the first full year of the department's "Safety: Mission Zero" plan, the department set record lows for incidents and accidents that caused employees and equipment to miss time on the job. It was also a year in which no TxDOT employee was killed on the job, something that is a very real possibility for many department employees. For more on these safety achievements, I spoke with Jerral Wyer, the director of TxDOT's Occupational Safety Division. |
