Glanbia wins International Dairy Food Association (IDFA) Dairy Industry Safety Recognition Award
In 2024, our Richfield, Idaho plant and transport sites obtained an outstanding award in workers safety. The annual Dairy Industry Safety Recognition Awards programme, co-sponsored by IDFA and Dairy Foods magazine, honours U.S. dairy facilities and trucking operations for outstanding worker safety. Now in its 21st year, the programme focuses on the safety of people and food within the dairy industry.
The safety recognition award represents the success of the innovative and proactive approaches companies take to improve safety within their processing environments.
The application process involved providing the site's occupational injury and illness performance rates as well as a detailed narrative essay on safety efforts at the facility. In addition, sites must maintain a recordable injury rate below the industry average for three consecutive years to meet the eligibility requirements to apply for the award.
