Announced today, we were recently awarded Gold in the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP) annual Safety Recognition Awards Program. The program reflects NALP’s dedication to creating and maintaining safe work environments in the lawn and landscape industry and is designed to reward lawn and landscape industry companies that consistently demonstrate their commitment to safety.

"We take a lot of pride in the culture we've built.  Safety, responsible driving, and accountability are built into how we train and manage our crews. This recognition of our safety record solidifies this. ", says Phil Steinhauer, CEO of Designscapes Colorado.

Companies that enter NALP’s Safety Recognition Awards Program are required to submit a copy of their OSHA 300A Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses report and their year-end vehicle insurance claims summary report. Each company is evaluated on the number of accidents, number of days that employees were away from work, and number of employee injuries and illnesses. In addition, a checklist was used to rate the company’s complete safety program. All award recipients are to be congratulated for their superior dedication to safety excellence.
