Enhancing Safety and Health Practices at NASA Glenn Research Center

The NASA Glenn Research Center's Clean Team, established in 2005, focuses on creating healthy workplaces by addressing indoor environmental quality (IEQ) issues through collaborative efforts among logistics, facilities, and safety & health representatives. By implementing a Water Intrusion Response Team, the Clean Team ensures rapid response for water-damaged areas within 48 hours, promoting cost savings and a healthier environment. The GRC's electronic safety permit process enhances operational safety by providing an independent review of hazards, streamlining permit issuance, and improving overall workplace safety.

  2. The GRC Clean Team - Best PracticeCreating Healthy Workplaces since 2005 • Established in 2005 in an effort to resolve issues related to Indoor Environmental Quality collaboratively with stakeholders • Clean Team Objectives: Healthy Workplaces and Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) • Membership includes representatives from Logistics, Facilities, and Safety & Health; weekly meetings ensure collaborative effort between three organizations • Creation of a Water Intrusion Response Team to provide rapid response so water affected areas are dried out within 48 hours, resulting in Cost $avings and a healthy environment!

  3. The GRC Clean Team - Best PracticeCreating Healthy Workplaces since 2005 • Focus is on maintaining healthy workplaces • Resolution of IEQ concerns using a root cause analysis approach • Long-term approach to proactively maintain healthy workplaces through implementation of corrective actions into our procedures • Recipient of NASA Group Achievement Award in 2008 • NIOSH - impressed with Team’s technical abilities Your Title Here

  4. Operational Safety - Best PracticeElectronic Area Safety Permit Process • GRC Safety Permit Process provides an independent review of Center operations and research testing activities • It evaluates operational and test-specific hazards and validates operator qualifications • Electronic safety permit process implemented to streamline the process after a Lean Six Sigma Kaizen event identified process improvement opportunities • Fully integrated process from initial request to final permit issuance

  5. Operational Safety - Best PracticeElectronic Area Safety Permit Process • Web-based application with archiving capabilities to minimize loss of permit requests or supporting documentation. • Supporting documentation can be uploaded in MS Office or PDF formats • Multiple access capability allows simultaneous reviews • Search engine capability for permit status (where is my permit?) and to research similar permitted activities • Automatic renewal reminders, as appropriate
