At Monday’s City Council meeting, Honeywell’s Richardson facility was honored for earning the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) Voluntary Protection Program Star designation — OSHA’s highest level of recognition for workplace safety and health. This achievement places Honeywell among an elite group representing fewer than 1 percent of U.S. worksites recognized for exemplary safety and health management.
A proclamation issued Monday night by the City Council noted that Honeywell has achieved nearly nine years without a recordable workplace injury and that the award was a testament to Honeywell’s leadership, teamwork and commitment of its employees and management “who make safety a shared priority every day.”
Founded in the 1960s as Spectronics, Honeywell’s site in Richardson has been a major player in the development of advanced sensor technologies and was the site of NASA’s first two-way radio transmission.
