RR Donnelley Facility Recommended for Voluntary Protection Program Star Status Recertification by OSHA
April 11 2016 - 5:30AM
R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company (Nasdaq:RRD)
announced today that its Senatobia, Mississippi production facility
has been recommended for recertification to Voluntary Protection
Program (VPP) Star Status by the Occupational Safety & Health
Administration (OSHA).
Created in 1982, OSHA’s VPP certification signifies the
implementation of effective health and safety management systems
and is attained only after an organization undergoes a rigorous
onsite evaluation conducted by a team of health and safety
professionals. The Star Status designation is the highest
certification level granted by OSHA and is given to companies with
exemplary safety and health management systems that have achieved
injury and illness rates at or below the national average of their
respective industries.
“This important recertification and renewed accomplishment is a
direct result of our employees’ continuing commitment to
operational excellence," said Dan Knotts, RR Donnelley's Chief
Operating Officer. “Overall, our five VPP Star Status-certified
facilities have evolved into models of excellence and serve to
influence best practices industry-wide. Among the many milestones
that RR Donnelley achieves, those involving safety are our most
important and we remain exceedingly proud of the accomplishments of
our Senatobia employees."
Michael Manzella, RR Donnelley's Senior Vice President of
Environmental, Health, Safety and Quality, & Chief
Sustainability Officer, commented, “The VPP certification is a
lengthy process. As part of the evaluation, OSHA also conducts
extensive interviews directly with employees as an important
barometer of a company’s overall safety and health program. We are
particularly proud that representatives from OSHA expressed
admiration for the knowledge, dedication and commitment of our
employees.”
RR Donnelley’s Senatobia facility employs state-of-the-art
technology to supply magazines and catalogs primarily to medical
journals and magazine publishers.
Additional detail on RR Donnelley’s performance in areas of
safety, environmental impact and sustainability is available in the
company’s Global Corporate Social Responsibility Report.
