The employees of GE-Motor Coils were treated to a luncheon, by local management , last Thursday. The event was held to acknowledge three consecutive years without a lost time injury, a monumental amount of time in the railroad industry. The Emporium facility also accomplished a record 527 days without a recordable injury. GE-Emporium was featured in the Safety Section of GE Transportation monthly newsletter, in January, for their exemplary safety record.
Operations Leader John Rosella addressed the employees, "Congratulations to every GE-Motor Coils employee for achieving this safety milestone. Three years without a lost-time accident is a tremendous achievement."
The Emporium facility has a very proactive safety program, with cooperative involvement from all levels of employment, under the leadership of EHS Director Fred Manginell.
