Safety Awards Application
The Safety Awards Program is preparing for the 2026 Safety Awards Banquet Season. An email was sent out on January 9, 2026, letting Safety Award recipients know that it's time to submit their applications online. If you are not already on our mailing list and would like to be added, please go to our online webform.
As a reminder, the Safety Awards application process has transitioned from a hard copy mail-in form to an electronic online form. Please review the instructions and example application below before completing the online form. You may also want to print the Bureau of Labor Statistics rate chart so you have it readily available when completing the application. Applications are due by February 15, 2026; which is the banquet attendance deadline. Even if you do not qualify for an award, please submit the application to remain in our system.
