WORKPLACE SAFETY
First and foremost – working at Meadows and Cooper can be dangerous. We all navigate icy walking surfaces, and many of us ski, ride, or snowmobile across the hill daily. To deal with these risks, our active Safety Program includes everyone in the company from top to bottom. We evaluate every accident or incident, work to identify hazards in your work area, and build programs like Get Shreddy to help target our known causes of injury. As a member of the team, YOU have an essential role within that program.
To help keep yourself and your friends safe, we ask you to:
- MOVE WITH CARE. Master the Penguin Walk. Watch for ice above and below!
- REPORT HAZARDS. Report anything that looks unsafe to your supervisor. You can also report behaviors or situations anonymously via the QR code below.
- USE YOUR PPE. If a task requires eye protection – use it!
- SKI/RIDE WITH CARE. If your job puts you on-hill, know and follow the on-clock guidelines.
If you’d like to play a more active role in workplace safety, talk to your supervisor about joining the Safety Committee! We meet monthly to review incidents and hazards, brainstorm solutions, and dig into the Root Causes of employee injury.
IF YOU GET HURT AT WORK:
- Tell your supervisor. Find them, call them, text them ASAP.
- If you need medical attention – Call Patrol. Put their number in your phone NOW: 503 438 3216.
Patrol will get you checked-in at The Clinic if necessary. They are a necessary part of employee check-in, please don’t visit the clinic without Patrol.
- Whenever possible, a member of the HR team will visit you in the clinic to discuss what’s next.
