RR Donnelley Facilities Earn Recertification to VPP Star Status
11 June 2012 - 8:30PM
R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company (Nasdaq:RRD)
today announced that its Senatobia, Mississippi and Lynchburg,
Virginia production facilities have been recertified with Voluntary
Protection Program (VPP) Star Status by the Federal Occupational
and Safety Health Administration (OSHA).
Star certifications, the highest that OSHA grants, are awarded
only after organizations complete an application process and
undergo a rigorous onsite evaluation that is conducted by a team of
safety and health professionals. These VPP certifications signify
the implementation of effective safety and health management
systems and maintenance of injury and illness rates below national
Bureau of Labor Statistics averages for the printing industry.
"At RR Donnelley we believe that employee safety is the first
and most important measure of operational excellence," said John
Paloian, the company's Chief Operating Officer. "We are very proud
that our company-wide safety performance is significantly better
than the industry average and that our Senatobia and Lynchburg
facilities in particular have again earned this elite
distinction."
Michael Manzella, RR Donnelley's Senior Vice President for EHS,
Quality and Sustainability added, "It is challenging to achieve VPP
Star Status for the first time but even more so to be recertified
because continuous improvement is an important element in the
program. Our employees continue to meet that challenge through
exceptional practices and outstanding teamwork."

Report provides a more detailed overview of the company's safety
performance.
