 Notwithstanding Mr. Schroeder's explanations for certain of his injuries, his injury record was substantially worse than the average for the department.

 It should be noted, however, that following Mr. Schroeder's completion of a remedial safety training course, his safety record improved. Mr. Schroeder should be given an opportunity to show that he can take responsibility for his safety, learn from his mistakes, and work safely.

                            AWARD


      Mr. Schroeder is to be reinstated to employment without back pay.
