Safety Toolbox
Courtesy of Naval Safety Command
Your safety toolbox contains everything you need to reduce harm to the force. Understanding these tools can save lives. Recognizing and reporting small mishaps and near misses will help prevent future fatalities and preserve the force.
Ignoring safety tools diminishes our readiness by removing Marines, Sailors and civilian employees from their units and workplaces due to injuries or worse, fatalities. Maintaining a safe standard ensures personnel, equipment and weapons are at the ready and the Marine Corps maintains its sharp advantage. All levels of the Corps, from the most junior private to the commandant, must use their safety toolbox to foster the culture necessary to prevent mishaps, the associated material losses, injuries, occupational illnesses and fatalities.
