WASHINGTON DC — The American Bakers Association’s (ABA) Safety Recognition Program awarded 19 member companies across 152 facilities for effective and successful safety programs in 2022.
“In 2022, despite supply chain and other challenges, more facilities received the award than the previous three years, demonstrating the baking industry’s continued commitment to workforce safety,” said Eric Dell, president and CEO of ABA.
The Safety Recognition Program was created in 2016 to establish a safety incentive and acknowledge individual bakery and allied company sites that excel in their safe manufacturing practices.
Since, the program has increased workplace safety awareness and highlights the importance of employee safety in the baking and allied industries. These efforts to develop strong safety programs also serve as an investment in the company’s financial health.
