I can see you guys have strong feelings about this subject as do I.

The boss has not brought this up yet. I noticed we are scheduled for OSHA training in Jan and my plan is to keep my mouth shut till then.

The biggest maint call out cost is plumbing by far.

George: we follow Texas Commisson on Jail Standards see this link www.tcjs.state.tx.us/
The standards are under general information.
Not much if anything on worker safety, most of the stuff involves inmate treatment.

BuggabooBren: There is in fact a procedure in event of fire and smoke. Because we do not open the jail if theres a fire, we must provide a smoke purge system. The link above will have info under general information then standards then Life Safety.

Thanks again folks
