Home : Safety Promotions : Lessons Learned

Lessons Learned is now Safety Awareness. Please visit us at https://navalsafetycommand.navy.mil/Safety-Promotions/Safety-Awareness/. This page will no longer be updated. Don't forget to change your bookmarks!


 
The Safety Awareness (formerly Lessons Learned) team creates concise, readable (and sometimes funny) safety lessons to help Sailors, Marines and civilian employees (and their families) avoid repeating a mishap. Our goal is to make people think! We do our best to tell a story that people will remember – that they’ll recall when going through their normal day – that empowers them to identify hazards, accept “ownership” and responsibility for those hazards (in their community, command, and home), and take action.
