NSSGA’s Safety Excellence Awards, established in 1987, promote safe working conditions and practices. The Safety Excellence Awards recognize individual operations that have gone the longest duration without a reportable injury in their size category. Data on which the award is based is provided by MSHA. Safety Excellence Awards are presented at Gold, Silver and Bronze levels for Small, Medium and Large companies based on work-hours. (Small: Up to 25,000 work-hours; Medium: Greater than 25,000, but less than 55,000 work-hours; Large: Greater than 55,000 work-hours). For questions regarding the Safety Excellence Awards, please contact Libby Pritchard at lpritchard@nssga.org.
