Rising Stars of Safety, Class of 2024
Kayla Lynn Fiveash

Occupational Health & Safety Specialist
Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane
Crane, IN
Kayla is one of the primary instructors for hazard analysis writing at NSWC Crane. In 2022, she revamped the classroom portion of hazard analysis writing. Classes are offered twice a month and feature nearly 30 students per class. Before she took on this responsibility, the training needed vital elements such as assessing hazards. Kayla introduced simple training techniques to allow employees to correctly identify hazards, assess the severity and probability of the hazards, and incorporate hazard analyses into standard operating procedures.
