The Greenery was recently awarded an Overall Safety Achievement Award from the Professional Landcare Network (PLANET).
The award, part of PLANET’s annual Safety Recognition Awards Program, honors those companies with thorough, high-performing safety programs that create and maintain safe work environments in the green industry. It is designed to reward green industry companies that consistently demonstrate their commitment to safety.
The Greenery 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.
Lee Edwards, CEO of The Greenery, says “The Greenery’s safe work environment shows our employees and clients that we care and are committed to providing the highest quality service available.
