We are recocognizing three differant sized employers - small (less than 50 employees), medium (51-125 employees) and large (more than 125 employees).

To qualify for the Excellence in Safety Awards an employer needs to complete the application form and return it to the location(s) indicated on the from. This file explains the terminology used in differant places (BLS, OSHA 300, NAICS) regarding the particular incident rates that need to be completed on the application form.

We will also be recognizing individuals who have made a difference in safety here in Hawaii as well. Two award categories are available for individuals who have displayed an extraordinary commitment to improving the health and safety of their co-workers, peers, and community. The two categories for individual awards are: 1) for an ASSE member who has significantly contributed to improving the health and safety profession and 2) for an individual who has been given the collateral responsibilities for occupational safety and health in their workplace, and done something extraordinary. Here is the application form for indivudul awards.
