[QUOTE="Just MitEman, post: 180149"] We had similar situations here. I would tell upset employee that the safety committee cannot force management to give out safety awards/gifts. Then I would tell the employee that if they received a postcard in the mail from the awards company to call the phone number and share their story with the awards company. Usually the award finds its way to the employee soon after. I am darn proud of my yearly safe driving award, and like many UPSers look forward to the recognition. It is an honor and a personal achievement to have a year of safe driving. It is mind boggling to think of the good decisions, and safe driving habits, that an UPSer has used trying to deliver packages with time commitments, customer expectations, inclement weather and management's production standards in a years time. I am bewildered that comfort for being forgotten on such an important safety anniversary, is to console oneself with above average pay and benefits. "We stress safety throughout our Company. The safety of our people and of the general public is of utmost importance to us. By meeting our own high safety standards, we will be contributing to the well-being of our people, our company, and the communities we serve." -UPS Policy Book [/QUOTE]
