PCA’s Occupational Health
and Safety Committee looks for examples of how
the cement industry is making its plants safer
places to work. The goals of the awards are:
- To honor innovative practices, programs,
and projects throughout the industry.
- To communicate these ideas to members of
the North American cement industry.
- To raise the profile and importance of safety
programs both inside and outside the industry.
In 2005, sixty-eight entries were judged by members
of the committee along with a representative of
MSHA and a member of the PCA Board of Directors.
Winners in four categories— Quarry, Milling/Grinding,
Pyroprocessing, and General Facility—received
a monetary gift towards a “Celebration for
Safety.” These awards are co-sponsored by
the Portland Cement Association and the Cement
Association of Canada.
