During a safety inspection at a Middle East District project site, Construction Safety Manager Lauren Wougk identified worn rigging equipment and used the opportunity to lead an impromptu safety brief for USACE safety leaders Nabeel Alsadek, Jai Parkash, and contractors. She emphasized the importance of inspecting synthetic slings prior to lifts. These proactive engagements highlight the Middle East District’s commitment to continuous improvement and real-time safety leadership on the ground.
