On April 27th PJ Hoerr held their quarterly safety meeting at Five Points Washington.  CEO Bob Hoerr welcomed the group, talked briefly about the upcoming work load and the status of the current insurance year and then turned the meeting over to Safety Director Hans Hinrichsen.  Hans gave an overview of the company's safety performance for the year to date.  Hans then presented the new company Safety Incentive Program relative to the revised OSHA requirements.  The emphasis of the new program is on pro-active actions on the part of the company's field team members.  The last checks from the old Incentive system were then distributed by Bob and Hans.  Bob concluded the safety portion of the meeting by emphasizing and illustrating the role that peer pressure plays in creating an effective culture of safety.  The meeting concluded with the recognition of recent PJH retiree Mark Buchanan for his 20 years of service to the company.  Mark thanked everyone and urged them all to have fun along the journey.  Bob sent everyone off with his traditional "Thanks for coming everyone.  Be safe out there and God bless!"
