COMPANY RECEIVES AWARD FOR THE FIRST TIME
NASHVILLE – Tennessee Department of Labor & Workforce Development Commissioner James Neeley announced that Clopay Plastic Products Company in Nashville was chosen to receive the Governor’s Award of Excellence for Workplace Safety. The award was given today at the 32nd Annual Tennessee Safety and Health Congress held at the Gaylord Opryland in Nashville.
"Clopay Plastic Products Company has demonstrated strong commitment to maintaining a safe and healthy workplace," said Neeley, who presented the Governor’s Award of Excellence to the company today. “The evaluation criteria for this award are challenging, and this company has worked extremely hard to meet and exceed the standards the award requires.”
The Governor’s Safety Award honors Tennessee employers and employees who meet a required number of hours without workplace injuries serious enough to cause an employee to miss a day of work or restrict normal job activities. The number of hours required is based on the size of the company.
Clopay Plastic Products Company manufactures plastic film and sheet. The facility has qualified for the Governor’s Award by working over 1,000,000 hours without a lost time or restricted duty injury.
