At Millennium, safety is our top priority. Just as we want our employees to return home safe after every shift of work, we are equally as passionate about promoting safe practices within the community in which we operate.
This fall, Millennium welcomed the Longview Fire Department as they filmed a training video on vessel stability. The bulk carrier unloading at the Millennium dock served as the perfect backdrop for the Fire Department to point out key safety focus areas and issues when approaching an onboard incident.
“Millennium just celebrated three years of accident-free work, and we are thrilled to help the Maritime Fire Safety Association deliver information that helps others stay safe,” said Wendy Hutchinson, Vice President of Public Affairs. “With the rich industrial heritage in our community, a steadfast commitment to workplace safety is something we place great value in.”
The Daily News featured a story on the training video, which can be found here. The video will be shared with 13 agencies making up the Maritime Fire Safety Association, which includes the Longview Fire Department, Cowlitz 2 Fire and Rescue and firefighting units from Portland to Astoria.
