This is the fifth year that IDFA has sponsored this program, which highlights the outstanding worker-safety records of U.S. dairy companies. The winning firms, which were named at the association’s fall board meeting in Charleston, S.C., are listed below.
The operations for each nominated company were judged solely on specific data required annually by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration on the facility’s Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses report. This year’s award decisions were based on data from OSHA reports for the 2007 calendar year.
