SAFETY AWARDS

SWANA's new Safety Awards program is part of the association's renewed emphasis on sharing examples of programs for worker safety and health that can be emulated by others. Will YOUR organization's safety program be one of the first to be honored? 

The new Safety Awards program includes two categories: Best Safety Innovation and Biggest Safety Improvement. These awards recognize organizations that are demonstrating a commitment to safety through thoughtful and original safety initiatives.

Members of SWANA’s Technical Divisions’ Safety and Award Committees will serve as judges. SWANA intends to present trophies to a winner and runner up in both categories at its annual WASTECON® conference, in Indianapolis, Indiana.
