Foreign object debris, or FOD, is a major issue in many workplaces. Without proper prevention in place, FOD can cause a range of problems that harm both employees and the organization itself. To reduce FOD and its potential consequences, organizations should develop Foreign Object Debris prevention programs. These programs should address how employees are trained to look for and report FOD, how the organization stores items properly to avoid objects entering production areas unexpectedly, and the steps taken to detect and remove any stray items that do enter the area. Such initiatives will help ensure an organization and its staff remain safe from foreign objects, promoting greater efficiency and higher morale across the workplace.
