KITCHENER, ONT.—Food, beverage and consumer packaging printer Boehmer Box is celebrating more than three years without a lost-time accident as well as a Healthy Workplace Silver Award from the Region of Waterloo Public Health.

Boehmer Box’s last lost-time accident took place on Aug. 16, 2007, and this spring the firm surpassed one million hours worked without such incidences. Company executives say this milestone is especially significant considering that Boehmer Box operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, according to a company release.

The company’s efforts to promote physical activity, tobacco-free living, healthy eating and other topics were recently lauded by the Region of Waterloo Public Health, which bestowed Boehmer Box with a Healthy Workplace Silver Award. The intent of the award is to celebrate companies that demonstrate a commitment to improving the health of their employees, according to the release.
