NSC honors organizations with 2018 Industry Leader Awards

The National Safety Council recently announced the 65 organizations that are receiving Industry Leader Awards for excellent safety performance within their industries.

The Industry Leader Awards, one component of the NSC Occupational Awards Program, recognize outstanding safety achievements of NSC members and represent the top 5 percent of member organizations that have qualified for the NSC 2018 Occupational Excellence Achievement Award (based on 2017 calendar year data).

Winners are selected based on North American Industry Classification System code, lowest total incidence rate and employee work hours.

“Each of these organizations went above and beyond to promote and advocate for safety,” Ingrid Schoen, director of membership at the National Safety Council, said in a July 25 press release. “We are proud to present them with the Industry Leader Awards this year, and we are grateful for their work to eliminate preventable deaths.”
