DENVER, Colo. – Swingle Lawn, Tree & Landscape Care announced today it was recently awarded an Overall Safety Achievement Award from the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP).
The award, part of NALP’s annual Safety Recognition Awards Program and sponsored by CAN, honors those companies with thorough, high-performing safety programs that create and maintain safe work environments in the lawn and landscape industry. It is designed to reward lawn and landscape companies that consistently demonstrate their commitment to safety.
Swingle Lawn, Tree & Landscape Care was evaluated on number of accidents, number of days that employees were away from work and number of employee injuries and illnesses. In addition, a checklist was used to rate the company’s complete safety program.
“Safe work environments show our employees and clients that we care about them,” said Thomas Tolkacz, CEO and owner of Swingle. “We continually promote safe work habits through continued safety training for our employees and practice these techniques on a daily basis because we recognize the importance of safety in the workplace. This recognition of our outstanding safety record will put Swingle above the competition.”
The National Association of Landscape Professionals represents an industry that employs nearly 1 million landscape, lawn care, irrigation and tree care professionals who create and maintain healthy green spaces for the benefit of society and the environment.
