One of the "Eligibility Requirements" for safety council members is to submit semi-annual reports which pertain to work-related injuries/illnesses at their businesses for the calendar year.

Each employer will be mailed the semi-annual report and instructions shortly after June 30 and December 31st. Employers must then return the forms by the 15th of July and the 15th of January.

We will continue to send the report and instructions out in the mail, but in case you don't receive it or misplace it you can now download it here.

ANNUAL AWARDS PROGRAM

The semi-annual reports are also used for the annual awards program. This program is for both REBATE ELIGIBLE companies as well as REPORTING MEMBER companies.

In order to recognize companies for their excellence in safety, the Galion Safety Council is required to host an awards event for the presentation of annual safety awards. We typically hold that event in March or April.

Awards are presented to qualifying businesses in the following categories:

Group Award - to the employer with the lowest incident rate in each group.

100% Award - to each employer that works the entire calendar year without an injury or illness resulting in a day away from work.

Achievement Award - to each employer that decreases its incident rate by at least 25% from the previous year.

Special Award - to each employer that accumulates at least 500,000 hours AND at least six months without an injury or illness resulting in a day away from work.
