SAFE EMPLOYER AWARD PROGRAM

It is the belief of the Safety Association of Rhode Island (SARI) that maintaining a safe workplace is the moral and ethical responsibility of every employer, and, that employees are morally and ethically responsible to work in the best interest of their employer.

​

SARI has developed this award program to provide recognition to employers that have made a measurable effort to establish and promote effective safety and health programs and practices within their workplaces.

​

To be eligible for this award, organizations must be represented in the membership of SARI, and must submit a completed award program application. The application includes relevant company information on injury and illness statistics, safety and health activities, and a narrative statement from executive management.

​

The Safety Association of Rhode Island (SARI) will recognize employers who demonstrate a continuing commitment to effective safety and health management for their employees. This award program is ongoing.

​

The SARI Safe Employer Award Committee, made up of members of SARI's Board of Directors will evaluate all applications, to determine eligibility for recognition as a Safe Employer.

​

Employers who are determined to have met the judging criteria will receive a plaque at the Annual Meeting in May.

Any member of the Association may apply for this award on behalf of his/her employer.

​

Information provided will be held in the strictest confidence, and used solely by the SARI Board of Directors in determining an employers' eligibility to receive a Safe Employer Award.
