IDFA's Dairy Industry Safety Recognition Awards
Honoring U.S. Dairy Facilities for Excellent Worker Safety Performance
Co-sponsored by IDFA and Dairy Field Reports
Now in its sixth year, IDFA's Dairy Industry Safety Recognition Awards program highlights the outstanding worker-safety records of U.S. dairy companies based on data from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) reports for the previous calendar year. Processing facilities are judged in four product categories: natural and processed cheese; dry, condensed and evaporated products; ice cream and frozen desserts; and fluid milk. Trucking operations will receive certificates for having no lost days and no cases involving job transfers or restrictions.
The 2009 program is now closed. Award recipients will be notified in the summer.
