The MCASF's Award for Safety Performance is based on safety performance of union mechanical contractors in Florida. The award is judged by a mechanical contractor's Recordable Incident Rate (RIR) and is combined with days away/restricted. The contractor with the lowest RIR and least number of days away/restricted, receives the award.
Created in 2006 by USF Safety Florida, the Sunshine State Safety Recognition Award commends Florida's employers and employees in all industries who proactively and routinely engage in job safety. There are approximately 40 small businesses who earn the honor annually, and the firms implement sound safety initiatives to better protect employees on the job.
