Congratulations to Norfolk Naval Shipyard’s newest First Level Supervisor High Velocity (1LSHV) graduates! Acting Shipyard Commander Captain Frank Gasperetti addressed the graduates during their June 26 ceremony on their successful completion of the leadership program and its importance to the shipyard. Individuals are selected for 1LSHV within their first year of attaining the position of First Level Supervisor, which provides a mix of leadership development methods including classroom learning, on-the-job shadowing and team participation. “The 1LSHV course will benefit each participant through increased leadership knowledge, broaden their interpersonal skills, instill better team building abilities and ultimately become the catalyst for a positive change of C.O.R.E. behaviors,” said NNSY Code 900T.2 Command University Program Management Analyst John Boyd. “It is the intent that each participant then uses these new tools daily to affect change in NNSY as an organization.”

Outdoor workers can be at a higher risk from the effects of excessive heat. When working under hot conditions, OSHA recommends as well as allowing more frequent breaks for new workers or workers who have been away from the job for a week or more (acclimatization). Knowing symptoms, prevention, and emergency response methods can help prevent heat-related illnesses and death. Check weather forecasts ahead of time to be better prepared. osha.gov/heat
