R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company (RRD) announced that its Lynchburg, VA facility has been recertified to Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) Star Status by the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA).
VPP certification is attained only after an organization undergoes a rigorous onsite evaluation conducted by a team of health and safety professionals. Star Status certification is the highest certification level granted by OSHA. RR Donnelley maintains five OSHA VPP Star Status-certified facilities.
Achievement of VPP certification requires employees, management, and OSHA to work cooperatively and proactively to prevent fatalities, injuries, and illnesses through a system focused on hazard prevention and control; worksite analysis; training; management commitment and worker involvement.
“Our employees in Lynchburg are an example of how our employees across the globe value safety as a core value of our operations,” commented Michael Manzella, RR Donnelley’s SVP of environmental, health, safety and quality and chief sustainability officer.
