SRCE Gets VPP #safetysaturday

Congratulations to SRC Electrical | VPP Star Site

SRC logistics would like to congratulate its sister-company SRC Electrical for receiving it re-certification as an OSHA VPP Star Site.  This marks the third year exemplifying this distinction for the company.

The VPP Program

Created in 1982, OSHA’s Voluntary Protection Programs recognize and partner with businesses and worksites that show excellence in occupational safety and health.  Sites are committed to effective employee protection beyond the requirements of OSHA standards. VPP participants develop and implement systems to effectively identify, evaluate, prevent, and control occupational hazards to prevent employee injuries and illnesses. As a result, the average VPP worksite has a lost workday incidence rate at least 50 percent below the average of its industry. OSHA removes participants from programmed inspection lists.

The Star Program

The Star Program is designed for exemplary worksites with comprehensive, successful safety
and health management systems. Companies in the Star Program have achieved injury and illness rates at or below the national average of their respective industries. These sites are self-sufficient in their ability to control workplace hazards. Star participants are reevaluated every three to five years, although incident rates are reviewed annually.
