Oil Patch Bits: NMS in Juneau receives safety and health award

The Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development said May 6 that NMS has been approved in Juneau for the Alaska Occupational Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program award as a result of outstanding employee safety and health programs. “As a company, we believe that safety is a journey, not a destination,” said Mark Jimmerson, area manager of NMS. “We must continually find ways to advance our safety culture and always continue to make safety a priority.” SHARP is a federal recognition program, administered by the Alaska Occupational Safety and Health section of the Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development’s Standards of Safety Division. According to the press release, companies that partner with AKOSH and achieve SHARP status are likely to experience fewer workplace accidents and reduce workers’ compensation insurance costs.
