Applications for ASA member companies to be considered for the annual ASA Safety Award must be submitted no later than Aug. 31, 2019! The award, sponsored by the ASA Safety Committee, recognizes ASA members that have shown they have gone above and beyond in the area of worker safety. Each year, the ASA Safety Committee recognizes three wholesaler/distributor member companies and three manufacturing member companies for their high level of worker safety. The applications for the 2018 reporting year are now being accepted and members can apply for the ASA Safety Award by completing the application form available at asa.net/safety/safety-award.
Award recipients will be recognized at this year’s NETWORK19 event being held in Washington, D.C., from Sept. 25-27 (asa.net/network19) and also be recognized in Supply House Times, ASA Insights e-newsletter and on the ASA website.
Below our statements from past award winners on the value of the award:
Safety is the number-one core value at NIBCO. All NIBCO associates work very hard to complete their duties in a safe manner, not every day but every minute of every day. I believe they deserve the recognition for this great work with internal and external service awards such as the ASA Safety Award.
- Ricky Bryant, Corporate Compliance Manager, NIBCO
Safety is a culture that starts at the top of every organization. Our solid safety record at Wolff Bros. Supply, Inc. has developed through many years of reinforcing safety behaviors at all levels. We believe the little things matter. Whether we are recognizing an employee in our company newsletter for submitting a safety suggestion, or displaying the ASA Safety Award recognizing our whole company, it is these consistent messages that continue the right culture. We are so fortunate to have the opportunity to be part of ASA and see so much value in the actions required to submit an application for this award among so many great companies. Competing for the award makes us better; receiving it is icing on the cake.
- Bill Green, HR Director and Safety Manager, Wolff Brothers Supply
