Code of practice for testing safety barriers soon to be published

PAS 13, Code of practice for safety barriers used in traffic management within workplace environments with test methods for safety barrier impact resilience, publishes this month. Health and safety statistics show that approximately 50 people are killed each year and more than 5,000 injured in accidents involving workplace transport. Each workplace is unique and likely to present different hazards and risks. However, a well-designed and maintained workplace with proper segregation of vehicles and people will experience fewer workplace accidents.

The Washington Post's November 9 Story Concerning Digitized Records

Statement by Secretary Jeh C. Johnson on The Washington Post's November 9 Story Concerning Digitized Records

On November 9, The Washington Post published “DHS Bid to Go Digital Falls Flat,” a story on the digitization program launched by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) in 2006. The story fails to recognize the progress DHS and USCIS have made in recent years to correct course on this important initiative. Thanks to efforts to modernize our immigration services, we have provided a fresh start to the program. It is now within cost and on schedule.
