About the Safety Awards Program
At GEAPS, we know how much work, knowledge and skill it takes to keep employees consistently safe on the job. That is why for over 30 years GEAPS has honored companies and facilities with verifiable records of achievement.
When companies enroll in the Safety Awards Program they are letting everyone—inside and outside the company—know how much the company values a top-notch safety program. It is also a way of honoring the people who put these programs together and kept them operational throughout the year.
Facilities have already signed up to participate in the 2013 program. Applications for the 2014 Safety Awards Program will be available fall 2013.
Go Green: Since 2009, GEAPS has offered a more environmentally friendly award. This certificate-only option is a great way to save on our natural resources. To participate simply select the "Go Green" option on your enrollment form.
For more information about the Safety Awards Program, contact safetyawards@geaps.com.
