Brock recently attended the industrial Industry Safety Excellence Awards Banquet held by the Contractors Safety Council of the Coastal Bend in South Texas. The team won Safety Excellence Awards for several sites and received the Safety Training Evaluation Process Diamond Award on behalf of ABC Inc. This award is given in recognition of safety management excellence, management commitment, a quality written safety program, and OSHA incident rates that are consistently below national averages. Congratulations to the team and thank you for being the prime example of our Bsafe culture.
Brock Participates in Career Day at Eastman Chemical
Last week, a few of our employees had the pleasure of helping to plan and participate in the Eastman Chemical Texas City Career Day. A selected team of our subject matter experts took on the job of making “Bring Your Kid to Work Day” a complete success. Kids were exposed to a variety of topics including career progression, hazard recognition, proper use of PPE and identifying barricades, just to mention a few. Hands on activities brought it all to real life application when the kids could help with scaffold building and insulating tasks.
Rosendo Ramirez Awarded with Brock’s Gold Coin for Hazard Recognition
Rosendo was making his way up a structure to perform an insulation job, and upon reaching the second floor he noticed several extremely hot steel braided hoses going across the walkway. The hoses were hanging approximately 18 inches from ground level. At that moment, Rosendo took action and set up a barricade so that no one tried to crossover the hazard and leaving no other option than to take a different route. Thank you, Rosendo, for taking initiative and making safety a priority, a true Brock HER0.
Brock at Citgo Corpus Christi Surpassed 2M OSHA Recordable Free Workhours
Featured in BIC Magazine – On July 7th, the Citgo Corpus Christi site surpassed two million-man hours OSHA recordable free and earlier in the year the site reached 21-years OSHA recordable free. To put this in perspective, the site has logged over 532,969 man hours and at the peak the site was logging in over 34,000 hours per week in this year alone. With so much activity the site was successful at raising awareness levels and effectively implementing programs such as the short service worker program. Congratulations and thank you to the team who are true Bsafe champions who take it to heart.
