Baldwin Filters’ Gothenburg plant was
recognized by the Nebraska Safety Council at its annual conference in Lincoln,
Neb., in early May.
Baldwin received the Safety Spirit Award for 2011, which the
Nebraska Safety Council presents to facilities based on their training
activities, safety committee activities, sustainability, current year
statistics and the programs the facility has in place to achieve safety in the
work place.
The Nebraska Safety Council is a nonprofit organization that
provides leadership and resources to promote safe and healthy work environment
across Nebraska.
“This achievement
could not have been earned without the efforts of all our employees and
managers,” said Brian Riley, the Gothenburg facility’s plant manager, in a
company press release. “Our Safety Committee, as well as
the managers and employees of Gothenburg, worked tirelessly to improve safety
in our facility over the past five years.”
