Whoever has the lowest numbers, wins!

Safety impacts your business

Safety and health performance are important to the overall success of your company. You can protect your employees by reducing and preventing exposure to hazards.
A safe work environment results in less absenteeism, higher morale and enhanced relationships between labor and management.
Employees benefit when injuries and illnesses decline, but so can your company’s bottom line.
Dollar savings can be dramatic, including substantial reductions in workers’ compensation expenses.
Good safety ratings can make you more competitive when bidding for new projects.

Getting in the Safety Zone will make your business OSHA-ready

Having documented safety programs in place greatly reduces your exposure to OSHA-related violations and fines.

Safety issues? Enter anyway!

If your company has been struggling with safety issues, entering these awards will show your employees that you are serious about stepping up safety efforts.
