Metro Door Receives State Recognition
One Year without an Accident
Safety
in the workplace is one of the key issues every company addresses each and
every day and many plan and practice to try and achieve what Metro Door in
Lewisburg achieved in 2012-2013.
Executives
of Metro Door and its parent company, Cintas Corporation, gathered together
last week the company’s Safety Committee to congratulate the team on its
leadership in making Metro Door a safer place to work.
The
Safety Committee of Metro Door joined Cintas in implementing a safety program
that included over 285 hours of training and an investment of $250,000 in new
equipment. The result was a 75% reduction in the Metro Door’s injury rate over
the past two years and the company going one full year without a loss-time
accident at the Lewisburg facility.
The
accomplishment garnered Metro Door and its Safety Committee an “Occupational
Safety Achievement – Commissioners Award” from the State of Tennessee
Department of Labor. The award recognized Metro Door for its full year without
a loss-time accident, a workplace injury rate being below the industry average,
the development of a written safety and health program that created an
environment free of safety and health violations, on-site safety compliance
training, employee engagement programs and management safety leadership
training.
“We
could not be more proud of this committee and what it was able to achieve this
past year,” said David O’Boyle, Sr. Regional Safety & Health Coordinator
for Cintas. “The recognition by the State of Tennessee is a tremendous honor
for Metro Door and its safety committee and it shows the value of the
investment and commitment Cintas has made toward creating safe and healthy work
environments for its associates.”
To
show their appreciation, Metro Door and Cintas provided a special luncheon for
its Safety Committee along with Certificates of Leadership and Certificates of
Appreciation for every employee at Metro Door.
Lewisburg
Mayor Barbara Woods attended the celebration to show her appreciation to the
team at Metro Door for tackling one of the most important issues of the recent
era.
“I
hope you all can recognize what you’ve been able to accomplish here at Metro
Door,” said Mayor Woods. “You have set a wonderful example for other companies
and I just want to congratulate each and every one of you and encourage you to
keep up the good work here in Lewisburg.”
