Awards program recognizes the recycling industry’s best in driving safety
(Washington, DC) – The Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI) today announced the entry period for this year’s Transportation Safety Awards is open. The program, now in its third year, features four awards recognizing outstanding safety records: the Best Fleet Awards, Pacesetter Awards, the Driver of the Year Award, and the ReMA Golden Wrench Award.
“The Transportation Safety Awards reflect the significance of vehicle and driving safety in the recycling industry,” said Commodor Hall, ISRI’s transportation safety manager. “By recognizing the top performers in the field, both at the company and individual levels, we are raising the bar for the entire industry. We look forward to another year of highly competitive entries.”
The Best Fleet Awards will be presented to the ReMA member with both the lowest vehicle accident rate and the lowest DOT severity rate for the calendar year 2014 in each of four classes, determined by size. The Pacesetter Awards will be granted to the ReMA member with the best 36-month accident record in each of four classes, determined by size.
The Driver of the Year Award will be awarded to the commercial vehicle driver with the best 20-year driving record, with the minimum qualification being no at-fault accidents during the driver’s entire career. The winner will receive $500, a trophy and leather jacket, and a trip to ISRI2015.
The ReMA Golden Wrench Award will be given to the best heavy vehicle maintenance technician or manager who exhibits outstanding efforts, achievements, and contributions to ensure that commercial vehicles are safe on the road. The winner will receive a trophy and a trip to the ISRI2015.
