“We had a difficult time narrowing the field down to a manageable number of winners,” said EHS Today Executive Editor Sandy Smith. “We received so many excellent applications that for the first time, we conducted several rounds of eliminations.”

To be considered one of America's Safest Companies, organizations must demonstrate: support from management and employee involvement; innovative solutions to safety challenges; injury and illness rates lower than the average for their industries; comprehensive training programs; evidence that prevention of incidents is the cornerstone of the safety process; good communication about the value of safety; and a way to substantiate the benefits of the safety process
