Companies get actively involved in safety during bi-monthly program

Fairfax, Virginia - SGIA members can now apply to participate in the 2015 SGIA Safety Recognition Program, a bi-monthly check-up plan designed to keep companies free of workplace hazards.

“Participation in this program ensures not only a safer workplace, but a happier one,” said Marci Kinter, SGIA’s Vice President of Government and Business Information. “Completing the program tells insurers and clients alike that you are running a safe operation.”

The primary objective of this program is to make employers and employees alike aware of the necessity of maintaining a safe working environment. SGIA also strives to help you create, on the part of member companies' staffs, an awareness of the need to comply with all applicable state, provincial and national safety laws and standards.

The program is active on a calendar year basis beginning January 1 through December 31. Companies who have completed and submitted each bimonthly checklist, through their own self-inspection and verification, will recieve the 2015 SGIA Safety Recognition Award.

The deadline for enrollment in this year’s program is January 31. Enroll now to become an active part of your safety program.
