Nominees were evaluated by a panel of industry leaders to determine the winner of the award, which was presented at the Fleet Safety Conference in Schaumburg, Ill.

“I’m just the facilitator to the results. It’s the 850 people at Paper Transport that have led to this achievement,” said Marvenko. “Technology is great, engagement is great, but you can’t do it without a good culture. As a leadership team, we reevaluated our personal commitment to safety and how we were going to apply this moving forward – and that’s really the magic as to how you get there and get the results.”

The Fleet Safety Conference is currently under way at the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center Hotel. Click here for more information.
