SA Recycling, headquartered in Anaheim, Calif., has announced that it has completed its 365th day without an injury or accident at its Port of Long Beach facility in California, which has logged more than 163,000 man-hours in the past year.
In the past 365 days, the Long Beach Facility has loaded 16 vessels with a total of 662,000 metric tons of recycled metal. The company’s processing operations at SA Long Beach include shear, torching, railroad car, container and large bulk vessel loading.
“I am so proud of the SA team that made this huge achievement possible,” says Moises Figueroa, SA Recycling general manager in charge of the company’s two port facilities. “We hold daily, weekly and monthly safety meetings, stressing everyone’s responsibility to work safely. It’s safety first or it’s not worth doing it.”
