Safety Pitfalls Fill
Haunted Mansion
To help celebrate Halloween and improve safety at the Lab, the Facilities Division's WOW (Workers Observing Workers) Team is hosting a haunted mansion in Perseverance Hall Tuesday, Oct. 31, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event is designed to promote injury prevention and awareness of at-risk behaviors among employees using "scary" displays of industrial accidents. Add to the fun by showing up in costume.
