We were recently recognized as one of “Nebraska’s Safest Companies with Distinction” for the first time. 

The award was announced at a Nebraska Chapter National Safety Council banquet in May. Several of our employees attended the banquet to accept the award. 

“This recognition reflects all the hard work that has been accomplished toward fostering a workplace culture focused on safety. Congratulations to the teams in the north and south regions on this achievement and for keeping safety top of mind in all you do,” said Kevin Jarosz, gas operations vice president in Nebraska.

The Celebration of Safety is an annual event hosted by the National Safety Council – Nebraska Chapter to honor companies and individuals who make safety a priority. This year a total of 107 companies statewide were honored as Nebraska’s Safest Companies for their dedication to outstanding safety programs. These companies have implemented safety initiatives designed to reduce injuries and save lives.

We have an exemplary safety record that is more than 50% better than the national average compared to their industry classification and has implemented comprehensive safety programs. “Winning a Nebraska’s Safest Company Award clearly illustrates a company’s commitment to ensuring that their team members return home safely to their families at the end of each workday. The Celebration of Safety honors the Nebraska organizations that have achieved excellence in safety this past year, and we are proud to recognize their achievements in providing a safer Nebraska,” said Eric Koeppe, president/CEO of the National Safety Council, Nebraska. 

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Make sure to tag us on FacebookInstagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
