Cohen Recycling employee exemplifies commitment to vehicle safety
(New Orleans, LA) – Forrest Matheny of Cohen Recycling in Middletown, Ohio was presented with the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI) Golden Wrench Award for exhibiting outstanding efforts, achievements, and contributions during a career in vehicle maintenance that spans more 25 years.
“Through a strong track record of safety, training background, and mentorship of others, Forrest Matheny exemplifies the meaning behind the Golden Wrench Award,” said Commodor Hall, transportation safety director for ISRI. “Not only does Forrest have the credentials that exceed the award’s requirements, but the strong testimonials from co-workers, customers, and vendors on his behalf show him to be quality, caring human being that takes safety to heart. It is with great pleasure that we honor him with this award.”
Matheny has been an employee at Cohen Recycling since 1993. He serves as a shop supervisor with responsibilities that include all maintenance on the company’s fleet of equipment. In addition, Matheny purchases equipment and supervises a team of mechanics.
“The ReMA Golden Wrench award to me, is more than being a great mechanic, it is about being a leader,” said Todd Will, transportation manager for Cohen Recycling. “Forrest leads by example with a strong work ethic, and for reinforcing core values of respect, appreciation, and dedication. Forrest’s safety record has been nearly perfect for his entire career. Forrest uses his experience and knowledge to mentor and to help train our company’s younger, less experienced mechanics, drivers, and managers. Forrest lives our mission every single day, and has quickly adopted ISRI’s Circle of Safety Excellence’s mantra, ‘Safely Or Not at All.’”
The Golden Wrench Award is based on the following criteria:
Other criteria taken into account are contributions to improving company vehicle maintenance, letters of appreciation, deeds of heroism on or off the job, and civic and fraternal organizations.
