HUTCHINSON, Kan. (Sept. 19, 2016) – Superior Boiler, last week celebrated the company and its employees achieving 1,000 consecutive days without a lost-time accident, a milestone achieved as of Sept. 13, 2016. The company’s safety and insurance partner, IMA of Wichita, Kansas, treated employees to a cookout Thursday, Sept. 15. As a company and as a leadership team, Superior has emphasized and prioritized safety over the past several years. The implementation of working committees involving all areas of the company has contributed substantially to the safety program’s success. “This is a significant milestone for any manufacturer,” said Superior Boiler CEO Doug Wright. “I’m extremely proud of the accomplishment for our company because it takes all employees being focused on the overall safety objective to make it work and be successful. It doesn’t happen without making improvements where necessary based upon employee input, focus and attention on details, and hard work.”

Superior holds monthly safety training sessions and maintains a safety committee comprised of a key group of employees who provide valuable input every month. “We make safety a big priority and our employees understand completely how important it is in our operations.” Wright said. “It helps creates a good, working environment for our employees when they know their input is making a difference. I want to thank those who put in the hard work along the way to get us to this milestone. That would include safety directors, safety committee members, supervisors and all employees. Our philosophy of quality products and exceptional value is coupled with safety for this very reason.”
