2016 Rising Stars of Safety: Taking safety to a new level
The National Safety Council presents the Rising Stars of Safety, Class of 2016
Jose Perez
Age 38
Corporate EHS Manager, Learning and Development
The Wonderful Company LLC
Delano, CA
“Jose Perez developed and implemented a comprehensive safety onboarding process for temporary employees that included site-specific safety training along with thorough job safety analysis at the worksites where employees would be placed. Over the course of 3 years of this initiative, the company experienced a decrease of their total recordable incident rate and a saving of over $2 million dollars in workers’ compensation rates. Another side benefit from the implementation of this initiative: the company saw an increase on employee retention by decreasing their turn-over rate. It was a win-win for the employees and the company.”
