HDT Seeks 2019 Safety & Compliance Award Nominations

Heavy Duty Trucking magazine is seeking nominations for its 2019 Safety & Compliance Award, sponsored once again by Omnitracs, which recognizes trucking executives who have demonstrated excellence in fleet safety.

The award is open to fleet, risk, EHS, safety, sales and HR managers who have shown leadership, innovation, and measurable results while enhancing the safety of their drivers and others sharing the road with them.

Nominees are evaluated by a panel of industry leaders who will determine the eventual winner.

The award will be presented at this year’s Fleet Safety Conference, taking place Oct. 28-30 at the M Resort Spa Casino in Henderson, Nev., just outside of Las Vegas.

Nominees must fill out a questionnaire that will determine the nature, breadth, and scope of his or her organization's compliance programs. The nomination deadline is Aug. 23, 2019, so make sure to fill it out before that date. The form is online and is available here.

Michael Lasko, Boyle Transportation’s manager of safety and quality, won the 2018 Safety and Compliance award for dropping Boyle's accident rate to zero through educating employees and providing necessary resources for them to excel.
