Business Wire
R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company (NYSE:RRD) today announced that
its 725,000 sq. ft. facility in Lynchburg, VA has been recommended
for recertification to OSHA�s Voluntary Protection Program (VPP)
Star Status. Created in 1982, OSHA�s Voluntary Protection Programs
recognize and collaborate with businesses and worksites that show
excellence in occupational safety and health. �We believe that
safety is the first and most important measure of operational
excellence,� said John Paloian, RR Donnelley�s Chief Operating
Officer. �We are extremely proud of our employees� exceptional
teamwork, innovation and attention to safety as reflected by VPP
Star Status.� RR Donnelley�s Lynchburg, VA facility serves a roster
of prominent regional and national customers with catalog and
retail insert production and with associated services. According to
Michael Manzella, RR Donnelley�s Senior Vice President,
Environmental, Health, Safety and Quality, �Recertification to Star
Status is exceptionally challenging because it requires improvement
from already strong safety performance. Employees in Lynchburg have
been recognized for a variety of best practices that include
innovations and excellence in employee safety awareness programs,
fire brigade and medical response teams, industrial hygiene and
others.� According to OSHA, the average VPP worksite has a lost
workday incidence rate at least 50 percent below the average of its
industry. �Among all the many ways in which we lead our industry,
none is more important than safety,� added Paloian. About RR
