Safety is a top priority at Mosaic, and it doesn’t stop with employees. Our contractors are also committed to safety when they complete work at our sites throughout Louisiana. Earlier this month, Mosaic hosted the Contractor Safety Awards to recognize our contractors who have gone above and beyond.

Louisiana contractors received awards in two categories: Safety Excellence Award and Workhorse Safety Award. 

Safety Excellence Award

The Safety Excellence Award is presented to contractors with a minimum of 2,000 hours worked over the previous year with a <.43 Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (RIFR). A total of 37 contractors with more than 1.1 million combined hours received the award.

Workhorse Safety Award

As the name implies, the Workhorse Safety award is presented to contractors who have put in significant hours as a Mosaic contractor: 100,000 or more! Like the Safety Excellence Award, these contractors also have no recordable injuries.

Five contractors received the Workhorse Safety Award with more than 690,000 combined hours.

“We appreciate the hard work of our contractors and their diligence to working safely,” said Holland Thompson, Director, Health and Safety at Mosaic. “At the end of the day, we want contractors and employees getting home safely to their families. We’re grateful to these contractors for doing their part to keep our industry safe.”
