L & W Quarries, Centerville, employees have been honored for working the entire year of 2007 without a lost-time accident. The employees operating in the Appanoose County Crushing Crew, and Stripping Crew, and the Mediapolis Crushing Crew were recognized at the Iowa Limestone Producers Association’s 63rd Annual Convention recently held in Des Moines.
L & W employees were also recognized for working five consecutive years without a lost-time accident.
The Iowa Limestone Producers Association sponsors a safety contest each year to give recognition to those member companies and employees who strive, as part of their every day activities, to work safely. This increased emphasis on safety has been a major factor in changing quarry work from a dangerous occupation, to where it is one of the safest places to be employed in Iowa.
