Before joining Acme, Katie Fetcie had worked for the State, writing informational documents for the public on home safety. This gave her an interest in safety issues, and led to a switch in career from writer to safety officer. However, Katie has maintained his interest in communicating safety, arguing that unless staff are "on board" with safety they will continue to have accidents - they cannot just pay lip-service to safety. Katie was hired when the company launched its "Safety First" program in 1999, and her commitment to the work helped to turn round the company's safety record, making it one of the safest chemical companies in the northeastern US. She is supportive of the new ISO 14001 proposal, but believes strongly that the environmental management needs to be communicated well to all the workforce in order for it to work. Katie is friends with NAME2 (occupational hygiene) and NAME3 (plant foreperson).
