Safety Program
Safety is a top priority at NOAA. The NOAA Safety and Environmental Compliance Office (SECO) is the lead organization for safety at NOAA. We want all employees and contractors to "promote a safe and healthy, environmentally responsible, energy efficient work environment". All NOAA employees and their contractors are required to take the NOAA Employee Safety Awareness Course each year.
