Safety Recognition Program
In an effort to reduce workplace injuries and accidents, and reduce our worker’s compensation insurance, the Safety Committee has developed a new Safety Recognition Program to recognize those departments that put safety first.
For a six month period, any department that has zero preventable injuries and/or accidents that requires medical treatment and/or incurs $1,000 or more of damage/expenses will be rewarded with a free lunch.
By working together to minimize injuries and accidents, we can ensure the safety of our coworkers and use budgeted money for safety programs, rather than for worker’s compensation insurance.
