BLHI Named one of America's Safest Companies
BL Harbert International has been named one of America’s Safest Companies by the Environmental Health & Safety Magazine Award.
Since 2002, the America’s Safest Companies competition has sought to identify those characteristics that differentiate good safety programs from great ones, and to then celebrate the best practices and procedures that exemplify safety excellence.
While this achievement is impressive in itself, it’s even more remarkable that BLHI has earned this honor for a second time. Our company was also named for this award in 2014.
To be considered as one of America’s Safest Companies, organizations must complete an application that requires them to demonstrate excellence in several areas: support from leadership and management for EHS efforts; employee involvement in the EHS process; innovative solutions to safety challenges; injury and illness rates lower than the average for their industries; comprehensive training programs; evidence that prevention of incidents is the cornerstone of the safety process; good communication about the value of safety; and a way to substantiate the benefits of the safety process.
“The America’s Safest Companies award program was designed to recognize and celebrate companies that go above and beyond in their pursuit of workplace safety. We congratulate all the award winners for their commitment to world-class safety excellence.” – Dave Blanchard, EHS Today Editor-in-Chief
