RR Donnelley Printing Operation Recertified for OSHA's VPP Star Status
June 18 2013 - 6:30AM
R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company (Nasdaq:RRD)
announced today that its Roanoke, Virginia production facility has
been recertified with Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) Star
Status by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
The Star certification is the highest that OSHA grants and is
awarded only after a comprehensive on-site evaluation and
confirmation that the facility's injury and illness rates are below
the industry average nationwide. RR Donnelley's safety performance
outperforms the industry average by more than 62%, as measured by
the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Recordable Case Rates.
"Roanoke is one of four RR Donnelley facilities that have
pursued and achieved VPP Star Status," said Michael Manzella,
Senior Vice President of Environmental, Health, Safety &
Quality. "Maintaining injury-free workplaces requires constant
diligence and awareness. Our employees do an exceptional job of
following and enhancing the processes that guide us as we strive to
provide a safe and healthy workplace."
"Achieving VPP Star Status is a significant accomplishment, but
the recertification process can be even more demanding because it
requires demonstration of continuous improvement. This
recertification reflects our employees' commitment to exceptional
safety standards," said Dan Knotts, RR Donnelley's Chief Operating
Officer. "We regard workplace safety as the first and most
important measure of operational excellence and we are delighted
that our employees' efforts and performance have been recognized
with this important certification."
