The N.C. Department of Labor honored the town of Garner with two awards: the Gold Level Certificate of Safety Achievement for the Planning Department and for the town as a whole.

Director of Public Works Paul Cox accepted the awards on the town’s behalf at the labor department’s Spring Safety Awards Banquet Sunday, June 11.

This is the 24th consecutive year the Planning Department has received this award.

The N.C. Department of Labor safety awards program recognizes private and public firms that achieve and maintain good safety records.

To qualify for an annual safety award, a firm must have had no fatalities during the calendar year at the site or location and have maintained an incidence rate at least 50 percent below the average for its particular industry group.
