Iowa Mold Tooling Co., Inc. (IMT), an Oshkosh Corporation business achieved recertification as a Voluntary Protection Programs (VPP) Star worksite by the Iowa Occupational Safety and Health Administration (IOSHA).
VPP Star certification is the highest level of recognition awarded by OSHA and is reserved for employers and employees who demonstrate exemplary achievement in the prevention and control of occupational safety and health hazards. IMT is one of 35 worksites in Iowa to have received this prestigious certification.
“Receiving the VPP Star recertification is a testament to the enduring safety culture we have built at IMT,” says Amy Brownlee, VP and GM, IMT. “Maintaining this elite status requires vigilance and active participation from every single team member, and I am incredibly proud of our team for continuing to prioritize each other’s well-being every day.”
To maintain VPP Star status, participants must undergo rigorous reevaluation every three to five years. This process involves a comprehensive onsite evaluation by a team of safety and health professionals to ensure the site continues to meet best-in-class safety protocols.
