New Industries, Inc., has achieved the major safety milestone of 1 million man-hours without a lost-time accident. "This is a tremendous accomplishment for our company, and I am proud of our employees' dedication to working safely," stated Bill New, New Industries' President. "This achievement is especially significant as we have nearly doubled our headcount during the last three and one half years. It is a tribute to our safety committee, front-line supervision, and indeed every member of our team that we have been able to sustain our safety culture while incorporating so many new employees."
"This is a huge safety accomplishment but not our first recognition for safety," HS&E Manager, Cody Rink added. "New Industries, Inc. has been honored with the Safety Award of Achievement by the Steel Tank Institute/Steel Plate Fabricators Association in three of the last four years." This award is given to companies that achieve a 10% or more reduction in the rate of the OSHA Total Recordable Incidents compared to their average rate for the previous three years.
