Schaumburg, Ill. — Paper Transport’s director of safety and driver development, Ken Marvenko, was awarded Heavy Duty Trucking magazine's 2017 Safety & Compliance award during a ceremony on July 25 at the Fleet Safety Conference.
The award is sponsored by Omnitracs and highlights trucking industry personnel who have worked to improve the safety of their companies and employees through leadership, innovation, and measurable results.
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.
