Michael Lammey is an expert in workplace safety. As a Navy sailor he had logged countless hours in safety training and as a contractor was well versed with OSHA procedures.
But in December of 2006, Michael Lammey was critically injured in a deadly boiler explosion while onboard the USS Frank Cable. The 720° steam blast caused third-degree burns over half his body, along with inhalation injuries. His recovery required 56 skin graphs and several reconstructive surgeries over 11 years. But he considers himself lucky to be alive; the accident took the lives of two other crew members and injured six more.
Looking back, that fateful event in 2006 should not have happened. All measures were in place. All safety protocols were followed. So, what was the cause? Complacency created by a false sense of security.
Michael’s training philosophy is backed by the federal safety CP-12 course consisting of extensive OSHA safety training and credential certifications in over 51 areas within the safety industry, as well as OSHA training certification for both the 10-hour and 30-hour general industry safety courses.
