<br />Public Safety Director, to speak to the Council concerning the activities of the Bureau of Public
<br />Employee Safety for 1974. He indicated that, in 1972, Mayor Miller began assuming the responsibi
<br />of city government and there was a growing realization of the need for a comprehensive safety pro
<br />gram for city employees. He stated that he had been appointed to reorganize the entire program
<br />and make the necessary adjustments in working habits and attitudes on the part of the city employ

<br />new team of safety coordinators. He stated that the foremen and union stewards safety committee
<br />was also organized. He indicated that safety seminars were frequently held. He stated that, as
<br />a result of the efforts of the administration, a substantial dividend of $1,100 in addition to a

<br />tion was given to the City of South Bend. In 1973 the city experienced a dividend return of

<br />money by reducing workmen's compensation insurance costs while improving health and environmental
<br />working conditions for employees. Council President Parent thanked Mr. Gervas for his presenta-
