Brunswick Facilities Worldwide Achieve Safety Recognition
OREANDA-NEWS. April 21, 2016. Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC) announced today the recipients of its safety award program for 2015. The purpose of the program is to encourage, recognize and reward employees and facilities that have achieved outstanding safety and health performance through promoting and practicing safety awareness, ultimately minimizing workplace incidents and injuries.
All Brunswick manufacturing, engineering and distribution facilities worldwide are eligible for such recognition. In 2015, three facilities won the Chairman's Safety Award, the Company's highest honor in the category, and each will direct a \\$10,000 donation to a local charity of its choice. Meanwhile, 24 additional facilities were recognized with Distinguished Safety Awards for their 2015 safety performance. In all, 37 facilities were cited by Brunswick for achieving no lost-time incidents during 2015, though all did not qualify for either the Chairman's Safety or Distinguished Safety awards, which include additional criteria.
The Chairman's Safety Award is selected and presented by Brunswick senior management to the most outstanding performers. The separate Distinguished Safety Award designation is achieved by meeting specific safety performance results, which include incident rates and other Brunswick criteria.
