SPI Safety Statistics and Awards Program

The Safety Statistics and Awards Program (SSA) is a way to gather more information on safety in the industry and to recognize facilities that have achieved a high level of safety performance. Awards are based on data reported on a company's annual OSHA 300 Log of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses.

"The award serves as a proud visual recognition for our employees of our facilities accomplishments in safety."  - B.C. Kennedy, EHS Coordinator, Berry Plastics Corporation.
