Wyeth workers recognized by OSHA

July

Workers and management at Wyeth Pearl River were recognized by the federal government for their efforts at reducing workplace injury rates 84 percent, at a ceremony this morning at the 580-acre plant.

Edwin G. Foulke Jr., assistant secretary of labor for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration bestowed the site with his agency’s Voluntary Protection Program star award, saying the workers’ commitment to safety means more of them are going home at night uninjured.

In recognition, Foulke presented Wyeth employees with a plaque and a flag, which will fly over the site’s administration building.
