TCA Announces Achievement Awards for Tilt-Up Industry
TCA has announced the debut of the Tilt-Up industry’s first Safety Achievement Awards.
Presented at TCA’s Convention, held in Denver Oct. 4-7, the Safety Achievement Awards program was developed to enhance the TCA’s overall Achievement Awards program, providing a new component emphasizing safety.
“The main purpose for the Safety Awards is to recognize TCA contractor members for their continuing efforts of creating safer Tilt-Up working environments for their employees,” said Ben Saltzman, TCA Membership Communications Director.
TCA divided the awards program into three specific categories:
• Best Tilt-Up Safety Achievement Award: recognizes the firm with the lowest incident rate in 2005. Since there were several firms achieving a zero incident rate, the award was given to the company with the highest number of annual work hours.
• Zero Lost Time Accident Achievement Award: provided to all submitting companies who achieved an incident rate of zero for 2005.
• Certificate of Recognition: awarded to all companies whose incident rate fell below the national average for structure contractors, a number that was made available by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
