Seth Matthew Baker joined Goodwill Industries of South Central California on January 14, 2019 as the Safety and Loss Prevention Manager. Baker attended California State University, Bakersfield and is certified in Occupational Safety and Risk Management and Workers Compensation Law. He is also a certified Fork Lift Trainer. As a safety manager, he strives to change the culture of each establishment to make safety an everyday part of their work week. It’s part of his goal to change the actions of others by the way he interacts and works with them. Baker defines success as living his true purpose and having a positive impact on the lives of people by uplifting and inspiring them to think and act in ways that they may not have considered before.

Baker’s favorite Goodwill item is the Safety Data Sheets binder because “it’s better to know than to expose yourself unknowingly.”

My greatest fear: “Not living life to the fullest or experiencing all life has to offer.”

Three traits that define me: “Hardworking, outgoing and common sense.”

My life motto: “Never know if you don’t go, and you won’t find out sitting at home!”
