Operation Epic Fury: What It Means for Your Safety Program


Listen Later

"When one thing rises, especially on existing bids within a supply chain, you have to make that up some other way. And a lot of times that some other way goes with not using the materials that you planned to use, maybe using something different, something cheaper, maybe something not quite as safe."

This week, Dr. Logan F. Martin and James Junkin break down what Operation Epic Fury means for your safety program.

They unpack how rising fuel costs, supply chain instability, and budget pressure create cascading hazards on the ground, and how proactive safety leaders can get ahead of it before it becomes an emergency.
