DALLAS – Shermco Industries, a leading provider of rotating apparatus and electrical power system testing, commissioning, repair, maintenance and training, has created the “I Saw Something Safe” campaign to promote a safe work environment. The program will be implemented during Shermco’s work on Hurricane Ike recovery efforts.
Employees are provided with “I Saw Something Safe” entry forms are encouraged to be on the lookout for safe work practices or observations and describe each incident on the form. All cards will be entered into a weekly drawing for a prize, and at the end of Shermco’s work on Hurricane Ike recovery efforts, a final drawing will be held to award the recipient with their choice of an entire house of Stainmaster carpet or $5000 cash.
“We are proud to get this campaign up and running. Millions of occupational injuries occur every year, and we hope to combat that through education and reward,” said Ron Widup, executive vice president for Shermco Industries. “Our goal is to leave the jobsite at the end of our stay with zero days lost to preventable safety hazards.”
