It’s time once again to complete the application for the annual Safety Training and Evaluation Process (STEP) awards.
The STEP program was developed and written by contractors for contractors. In addition to giving your company recognition for its safety efforts, the STEP program helps the ABC National Environment, Health & Safety (EH&S) Committee better identify the safety needs of ABC members. By targeting those needs, the committee can more effectively develop safety-related materials and programs that will directly benefit you company.
At its core, STEP is a way for ABC members to build on their long-term safety performance and training efforts. Whether you are beginning a safety program or are looking to make the jump to a world-class program, STEP provides you with a valuable road map to success.
The STEP program provides an organized approach to analyze and further develop your safety and loss prevention program; provides a valid, objective method for measuring safety program improvements; and provides your company with safety performance recognition that can be used as an important business development tool.
STEP Award applications are accepted throughout the year; however, if you wish to receive your STEP certificate at the Bayou Chapter's Safety Awards ceremony, you must submit your STEP application to the Bayou Chapter no later than Friday, February 29, 2008.
There is no charge for this service unless you are applying for STEP Platinum. If you are applying for STEP Platinum, please submit a $165.00 check, made payable to ABC National, with the platinum application. For a copy of the application packet, please contact the ABC office and one will be sent to you.
