Information collected from route and demand response manifest reviews are <br /> provided to the Safety Committee for evaluation during monthly safety meetings. Contract managers <br /> also review the documents for safety and performance information. <br /> Safety Management System principles dictate that transit employees must document when mitigation <br /> actions are taken.
