N.C. Department of Labor's Million-Hour Safety Awards Program is administered through its Education, Training and Technical Assistance Bureau of the Occupational Safety and Health Division. Million-hour safety awards are given to companies which accumulate one million employee hours with no injuries or illnesses involving days away from work. Subsequent awards are given for each additional one million employee hours with no injuries or illnesses. Million-hour awards may be presented to the firm at its place of business at any time, or during the local annual safety awards ceremony.
