STI/SPFA and its members value the safety and health of its member companies and their customers, communities, and the environment.

Since 2003, STI/SPFA has annually recognized the safe performance of members’ fabrication and field operations. Safety Awards are presented annually to acknowledge the highest achievements in the safe performance of companies engaged in shop fabrication, inspection, maintenance and field construction activities.	Safety Award of Excellence This award is made to organizations whose employees have achieved a safety record of 12 consecutive months with Zero OSHA Recordable Incidents.
Both the Safety Award of Excellence and the Safety Award of Achievement represent masterful achievements, as employees routinely work at heights, bend and weld inches thick steel, pressurize vessels to withstand hundreds of pounds of pressure and maintain everything from refineries to water reservoirs.	Safety Award of Achievement Companies whose employees have achieved a minimum of a 10 percent reduction in the rate of OSHA Total Recordable Incidents, as compared with their average rate for the prior three years are eligible to receive this award.

Each fall, STI/SPFA provides an opportunity to its member companies to apply for its Safety Awards. STI/SPFA will communicate with members to advise them when the annual Safety Award Applications are available on this website. If STI/SPFA member companies have questions about the Safety Awards, please contact STI/SPFA at 847/438-8265.  Thank you!
