Freeport, Texas Location Receives Safety Excellence and Safety Sustainability Awards

CHICAGO, June 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- STG Logistics, the nation's largest provider of port-to-door services and supply chain solutions for cargo owners and logistics providers, is proud to be recognized by Dow for safety excellence. STG's Freeport, Texas drayage operation received two safety awards for work accomplished in 2023: Dow's Safety Excellence Award and Dow's Safety Sustainability Award.

These honors were received at the 2023 Awards and Recognition Ceremony for Contractor Safety Performance, held on April 16th at the Dow Academic Center in Lake Jackson, Texas. These awards showcase STG's commitment to the highest standards of operational and workplace safety and reflect STG's dedication to ensuring every employee returns home safely each evening.

"This recognition is a direct reflection of our incredible employees and our onsite safety team. It takes enormous effort and skill to operate safely on a chemical production site. We pride ourselves on an unwavering commitment to ensuring the safety and health of our employees," said Paul Svindland, STG's Chief Executive Officer.

The Safety Excellence Awards are presented to companies that have worked at least 50,000 hours while meeting stringent on-site safety requirements, which include a high non-injury self-report rate, no recordable injuries and participation in on-site Environmental Health and Safety activities. The Safety Sustainability Awards are given to companies who have worked a minimum of 20,000 hours a year and have an injury rate less than the sites over a four-year period.

"These awards are a tangible result of our "Safe Today, Home Tonight" approach to employee health and safety," said Svindland. "Safety is at the core of every decision we make at STG, and we know the well-being of our workforce is critical to our success as a company."
