June, recognized as National Safety Month, is a fitting time for the Executive Safety Advisory Committee (ESAC) to announce safety winners for calendar year 2014. A ceremony was held at the KY State Office Building on June 30, 2015. Plaques were presented to the Cabinet for Health and Family Services, Education & Workforce Development Cabinet, Energy and Environment Cabinet, Finance and Administration Cabinet, Labor Cabinet, Personnel Cabinet and Department of Military Affairs and a combined 137 certificates were awarded to these winners for their commitment to workplace safety and employee education. Reduction in the number of work-related accidents and illnesses helps to reduce worker's compensation costs and improve employee productivity and morale. Congratulations to these winners:
