Buzzi Unicem’s Chattanooga cement plant, USA, has achieved one year without a lost time injury (LTI). In recognition of the safety milestone, a bbq lunch was held for the plant’s employees and shirts were given out to celebrate the record. Prizes were awarded to four of the site’s long-term employees, Jerry Sharp, Fred Whisnant, Randall McDonough and Jesse Vaughn, each of whom had worked for more than 40 years at the plant without experiencing injury.
