Infoshred, LLC, headquartered in South Windsor, Ct., is one of 20 companies in New England to earn the highest certification for workplace safety and health. The Connecticut Department of Labor's Division of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the U.S. Department of Labor awarded Infoshred for completing the Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program.
SHARP recognizes small employers who operate an exemplary safety and health management system.
According to the Department of Labor, companies participating in SHARP, must request a consultation visit that involves a complete hazard identification survey and involve employees in the consultation process. All identified hazards must then be corrected and the company must implement a safety and health management system to lower the Lost-Workday Injury and Illness Rate and Total Recordable Case Rate below the national average.
“At Infoshred, our two foremost concerns are safety for our employees and security for our customers,” said Jack DiPiazza, general manager. “We have 18 employees and operate a state-of-the-art secure facility that includes a 125-horsepower industrial shredding machine, conveyors, and bailing equipment. We were pleased to work with the CONN-OSHA consultants to improve our overall safety level and we’re proud to have earned the SHARP certification.”
Founded in 1993, Infoshred, LLC is a provider of secure document management services.
