New program's message to fed employees: buckle up!
“Every Belt - Every Ride,†a new campaign launched this week by OSHA in partnership with the Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), encourages all federal employees to wear seat belts in all stations of moving motor vehicles.
The initiative, announced at the National Safety Council in New Orleans, is not just for vehicle drivers but passengers, too. It emphasizes the importance of wearing a seat belt no matter which seat you are in when traveling on public business in government vehicles, private automobiles, taxis or any other moving motor vehicle.
