NALP to recognize nation’s safest landscape contractors

NALPLandscapers interested in entering in the National Association of Landscape Professionals’ Safety Recognition Awards Program have until May 2, 2016.

CNA sponsors the program, which is designed to recognize landscape companies that demonstrate a commitment to creating safe work environments. The award categories include: No Vehicle Accidents, No Injuries or Illnesses, No Days Away From Work.

Landscaping professionals who have entered their companies in previous programs are also eligible in the “Most Improved” category.

To enter the program, landscaping companies must include the entry form, OSHA Form 300A Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses, and a copy of the year-end insurance claims summary reported. For more information or to access the forms, go here.
