SLEMCO has been named one of the “Safest 70” policyholders by LWCC, Louisiana’s largest workers’ compensation carrier. The annual Safest 70 Awards, recognize policyholders across the state who demonstrate exceptional leadership in workplace safety. Recipients of the award are committed to preventing injuries, reducing risk, and building safer work environments for their employees.
“We are very proud to be recognized among the safest companies in the State,” said Katherine Domingue, SLEMCO’s CEO & General Manager. “The work we do is extremely dangerous. Our commitment to safety and training helps us stay focused when working on high voltage power lines, which in-turn means our employees make it home to their families each night, safe and sound.”
Established in 2008, the Safest 70 Awards reflect LWCC’s longstanding commitment to advancing safety across Louisiana’s workforce. To qualify, recipients must be in good standing with LWCC for at least five consecutive years and actively collaborate with LWCC’s Safety Services team. Honored companies demonstrate a proactive approach to identifying hazards, implementing prevention strategies, and continuously improving their safety performance.
“Safety is not achieved through a single program or initiative. It is built through consistent leadership, employee engagement, and a willingness to continually improve,” said Damian Simoneaux, LWCC Safety Services Manager. “We are proud to partner with these organizations as they work to create environments where employees can perform their jobs safely and confidently every day.”
